Frequently Asked Questions

Why Hospital Medicine B&B?

We believe that our courses will teach you all the real cases that you are going to face in the hospital on a daily basis under all the different body systems!  The courses here will familiarize you with all the real cases that you will face before you actually see them in real life so that you will know how to manage the patients appropriately and how to treat them according to the latest guidelines.  Our courses will give you confidence, help you answer the most challenging questions, and help you shine between your colleagues.  A lot of times we go to the hospital without an introduction or a real bridge to the hospital medicine world.  Then, when we arrive on our first day and naturally, we feel lost or over whelmed with the amount of information that we were never really introduced to. This course will give you that introduction and bridge so that you can have a smooth transition to the hospital, shine, and make the best out of your career.

Do I have to buy all the courses?

No.  We understand that everyone is different, weak in some specialties while strong in others.  Therefore, the course was divided into all the main body systems where you can take each one separately.  Once you create an account, you can purchase whatever course you desire.  Having said that, you probably already know that internal medicine is a big circle connected between all the systems.  Taking all the courses will help familiarize you with the whole picture and see how each system effects the other and the whole body as one.  To have a full understanding, we do advise you to take all the courses.

Which course should I start with first?

If you are brand new to the hospital world, we advise you to start with the hospital medicine basics course.  This course will familiarize you with the general basics that you will need to know before you dive into the rest of the systems.  This course will also teach you some basic terms and medicines that are used in the hospital on a daily basis on most of the patients admitted.  From there, starting with any course will be your choice.  Hospital Medicine Basics is discussed in a straight forward manner and not in cases like the other courses.

Are the courses refundable?

No.  Once you purchase a course, it is not refundable.  We advise you to watch the sample videos so that you will be familiar with how the course is taught prior to purchasing.  Having said that, we believe that you will find the courses very easy to follow, full of great material, and good paced.  We are confident that you will enjoy these courses and find them to be as realistic as possible to real patients.  You will feel that you have your own attending teaching you one on one.

How do I benefit from the courses?

We believe that you will have full benefit if you review each course more than one time.  Listening to the cases more than once will help you understand the cases better and remember them easier.  When you are listening to the videos, we advise you to pause the case, think about the potential diagnosis, what tests you need to do to confirm your diagnosis and how to treat.  This will start your thinking process and get you ready to see patients in real life.
