Blog Links

This is a work in progress – don’t get your panties in a wad if you aren’t included yet. Just leave a link in the comments section and your blog will be added on the next round. Don’t forget to let me know which category your blog falls into.
I’ll clean this list every so often, so make sure you post on your blog regularly – don’t want dead links.
By the way, the order of the blogs on this list means nothing. This is not going to turn into some kind of weird Jerry Seinfeld episode.

    Hey! What about me? What am I, chopped liver? Which of course, I have a great recipe for…

    The Blog that Ate Manhattan- http://theblogthatatemanhattan.blogspot.com

    You can list me under ob-gyn blogs if you feel so moved.

    Thanks for a great list.

    I’d be really grateful for some links concerning Diabetes Mellitus.

    Diabetes Mine is one that comes to mind.

  9. Thanks for adding mine to the list.

    Keep on with the excellent posts. I linked you on my blog.

    Thanks for the add… but it’s “codeblog” not “codeblob” :P

    My fingers aren’t as nimble as they used to be.
    Be a good name for a medical-based horror movie, though, huh?

    How you think when the economic crisis will end? I wish to make statistics of independent opinions!

  12. Hi there! Would love a link to The Nurse Practitioner’s Place. I don’t know if you wanted to post it under nurse specialty or a separate category of Nurse Practitioners. Thanks!

    My blog is about personal experiences in 2006 having liver transplant due to cirrhosis from Hep C. The transplant was complicated by additional surgeries for bleeding (twice) and very large incisional hernia (once), pneumonia, several liver biopsies, ERCPs to insert stents(blocked bile ducts), a deep surgical site infection and aggressively recurring Hep C (fibrosis stage 2-3 at four months post-transplant). I’d be very grateful to find blogs by hepatologist, transplant surgeon, infectious medicine docs, gynecologist with knowledge about transplant’s impact on menopause (yeah, I know, I know, that’s pretty specific – no wonder I can’t find the info, right?), etc.? You’ll be one of my heroes if you can help me track any of these down. Many thanks – and happy new year!

    PS – I’m linking you on my blog

    You can link my blog….wellness woman writes.

    It concerns my experience transitioning from college prof to activities assistant in a State certified Alzheimer’s unit and my efforts to integrate holistic ways in an old-school facility. It is continuing.

    Hi,

    I forgot to tell you that my blog would fall under Geriatrics or Commentary, I suppose.

    Off to another dementia day.

  19. Hi Whitecoat,
    Your posts make me LOL! It’s great to see frank discussions of health care w/o the sugar-coating.
    Please link to my blog http://healthewoman.org–it would be in the ob-gyn category.
    I am an ob-gyn who dropped the ob a year ago for “declining reimbursement” (a euphemism for 70% of the births in my hospital being to illegal immigrants–I don’t have anything against immigration, just think they should pay for their medical care like me and everyone else).
    I’m doing my part with my blog to try to change health care by encouraging patients to think for themselves and giving them the knowledge and confidence to do so.
    I will link to your blog,
    Thanks,
    Shelley

    Don’t forget a section for the Medical Librarians. They are doing some really great posts on patient education, finding evidence based medicine, and they often discuss how the healthcare professionals information needs and usage of research.
    A list of their blogs can be found at http://liswiki.org/wiki/Medlib_Blogs

    http://www.MDWhistleblower.blogspot.com

    Physician blog devoted to medical quality. Candid and controversial postings from a practicing physician.
    If you are kind enough to link, I suggest the commentary category.
