DIP Ep 627: The Clutch Herpes Podcast (Step 1-3), Part B

This podcast is incredibly HY for the USMLE and COMLEX exams. In this concluding podcast, I address herpes from an “integrative” perspective. There are so many branch points our examinee overlords can take with the herpes viruses so I aggressively go after them with this podcast. In this second part, I discuss the remaining herpes viruses (2-8). I also integrate the some material related to neurology and immunology while discussing some other pathologies that make common appearances on these board exams.

In this short podcast, I discuss the upcoming 25 Hour USMLE Step 1 Basic Science Review taking place on zoom from 6-11 pm EST from 12/1-5. The review will be incredibly clinical, focus on integrations, help you understand pathophysiology, and expose you to a large amount of the Step 1 content. This class is also intended for folks taking Step 2 and 3 needing a refresher on their basic science foundations. Many taking Step 3 find this class to be very helpful given its large basic science coverage.

DIP Ep 625: The 5 USMLE “Gaps” (Step 1-3)

In this podcast, I conceptually explain the 5 different gaps tested on the USMLEs (Serum AG, Urine AG, Osmolal gap, SAAG gradient, and A-a gradient). I make numerous integrations and really help you understand these things so you don’t have to memorize them. Another point of emphasis (low SAAG ascites is similar conceptually to exudative effusions). If you’re interested in the Step 1-3 classes beginning next week, shoot me an email.
