Me and My Blog

Salve! My name is Jordon Walker and I am currently a sophomore, soon to be junior, at Yale University. At Yale I am pursuing a premed track and I wanted to create this blog to write about my experiences and post about other things I've noticed in healthcare. Aside from academics, I currently work in a medical genetics clinic, shadow at Yale New Haven Hospital, am active in the Yale Political Union and the Roosevelt Institute on campus. This summer I was lucky enough to be offered a position in a diabetes research lab at the Anylan Center, which is located in the medical complex near the Yale School of Medicine. 
As far as future aspirations go, I intend to go to medical school (obviously) at the University of Texas's Southwestern Medical School or Georgetown Medical School. After that I would like to complete a residency in internal medicine and go on to become either a private practice internist or work for a pharmaceutical company running clinical trials (Yes, I am a die hard capitalist, who wants to assist the evil Big Pharma companies. You know, the ones whose research develops life saving therapies like Viagra). If I choose not to go down either of those paths, then I will become a physician for either the Marines or the Navy (my uncle was a Marine and made it sound bad ass, but I also love water) and hopefully get to see exotic locales and explore the world. 
In terms of this blog, it will cover a wide range of topics depending upon my specific inclinations of the day. From health care policy to Medical schools to the more mundane aspects of being a premed (read: grades :O), I hope to cover all that and more. In reality I doubt many people will view this blog so it is mostly for me. I have always wanted to write books (my first one was written in middle school and it was no doubt ghastly) and hope to one day become a novelist as well as a doctor--or at least that is what I keep telling myself, while I imagine my perfect future. For me, the best thing that could happen would be for me to publish my first book the year I graduate from medical school. Eventually, I would like to write a trilogy of books in the fantasy realm akin to the Eragon books, but better because they would have a deeper underlying message, which I failed to notice in Eragon or rather I read it at such a young age that I don't even remember what it was about. Either way, I'm sure my novel will be better or at least the movie that will be made from it--because the Eragon movie was dreadful. 
Well that's who I am and I hope all two of you, who will actually read this, will enjoy the blog from here on out!

  1. If you end up in Asia as a Marine doctor, you could have a baby with one of the locals there. Such a great tradition

    1. The Marine Corps does not have its own medical personnel. Medics for Marine Corps units are in fact Navy Corpsmen.

    2. Ummm, he is now an M.D. medical doctor (though it appears he does not practice clinical medicine). At the time of this writing, he was a premed undergrad. "Medics" (e.g. Corpsman or Hospitalman) serving the Corps are enlisted ranks. Anyone with an undergrad (Bachelor) degree, and especially a medical doctor, would be coming in as commissioned officers (e.g. Lieutenant and higher for a doctor).

  11. Gee Jordan nice to see you!
    I'm sure you'll remove this comment but we already know who are. This page has been archived quite a few times because the Internet never forgets.
    Been starring in any undercover expose videos lately? Oh wait you have?!? Is that the one where you went into full meltdown and committed FELONIES on members of the Press?
    Oh wait... IT WAS.
    You should be charged with Crimes Against Humanity, dude.
    When the Reckoning comes (and it damn sure will) you won't be forgotten.
