again, not sure how to interpret this statement . .

I guess I wasn't very clear. Part of the responsibility of 2nd and 3rd year medical residents is to teach interns and medical students. From 1984-6, one of my medical students and subsequently interns went on to do a fellowship in a medical subspecialty, returned to the hospital that we both had trained at, and eventually became head of that department. While he was dept. head, he had a fellow in that subspecialty that he trained, obviously one that was younger than both of us. It was this physician that I encountered here in TVRH and gave an ignorant answer as a solution to a diagnosis, and claimed he heard that particular info from his head of dept., who I had taught. I knew the dept head pretty well and know that he would never have told anyone the BS that this guy here in TV was laying on me. Hope that clarifies the issue.
