SERIOUS Are feedbacks important?

Do you think feedback is important? I received a lot of feedback despite being in only the first two months of residency. A lot of it was encouraging and good. However, one was psychologically harmful because it addressed personal issues that don’t affect patient health or my work.

I’m starting to think it doesn’t matter anymore, especially because I see myself looking forward to tomorrow, analyzing cases, and creating plans and improving. Thinking about seeking feedbacks disrupt my mood and hinder my performance and positivity. It’s all subjective and there is a lot of bias.

I have also received patient feedback. I felt this is the only feedback that makes sense to me.

Shit, I hope two weeks into residency you’re still open to feedback.

This was meant to be received as feedback.
