Dr. Cranquis' Mumbled Gripes
I'm an American physician who works in an Urgent Care clinic. I see lots of stupid or funny things that people do with-and-to their health. I cope by mumbling under my breath (and then posting about it on this pseudonymous blog). Thought you might be interested.
(Disclaimer: Questions related to medical topics will be answered to the best of Dr. Cranquis' (and Google's) knowledge, but the internet-delivered wisdom on this blog CAN NOT AND SHOULD NOT SUBSTITUTE for your Real-Life Doctor's personal attention + examination, and your own common sense too! If you think you're having a medical emergency, hang up and go email 911. The author of this blog takes no responsibility for any medical, relationship, scholastic, financial, or other decisions you may make based on information found in this blog.)
And since people seem to be a bit confused about this: any "real-sounding" patients names are just horrible puns, and not HIPAA violations.

Future certified nurse midwife (CNM) amanda-pearl had asked for some nursing and OB blog recommendations, and I turned to my Cranquistadors for suggestions. I checked out all of their recommendations, and here are the blogs that seemed to fit those categories.
- Nurse-On-Duty — Tumblr; nurse; one of the most “nursing-related stuff ONLY” blogs I found.
- Rubylipstick1 — Tumblr; registered nurse; sources tell me she has “lots of other nursing blog suggestions”.
- Nocturnal Nurse — Tumblr; registered nurse; gross anatomy, pharmacology, medication safety, mnemonics. (-2 Cranquis Points for having auto-play music in the theme — pet peeve!) :)
- Charmainegrace — Tumblr; graduate RN resident, with interests in psychiatry and gross anatomy.
- Natural Night Nurse — Tumblr; registered nurse working in peds with dreams being a CNM, also has auto-immune conditions.
- itsjustcharli — Tumblr; registered nurse working ICU.
- theitunurse — Tumblr; registered nurse working ICU.
- Stand and Deliver — Blogspot; Doula/midwife’s assistant; pregnancy, birth, women’s issues.

Thanks to all my Cranquistadors for their recommendations!
EDIT: Here’s another good one…
