In ancient Greece, the asclepion was a healing temple dedicated to Asclepius, the God of Medicine. Asclepius learned the art of surgery from the centaur Chiron and had the ability to raise the dead. The Rod of Asclepius is a roughhewn branch entwined with a single serpent.

Reading
I read very simple and straightforward advice on third year rotations. A short book called "Primary Care Otolaryngology" suggested that we read an hour a day. It doesn't sound like much, but apparently, but the end of the rotation, we'll have learned a lot. I have found this incredibly difficult to do. When I get home at night, I just don't feel like I have the time or energy. But I still think it is really good advice to prevent last minute cramming before the final or shelf exam. I'm about half way through the family medicine rotation, and I'm going to try to do at least an hour worth of work every day. It really shouldn't be that hard since it's pretty much an 8-5 rotation.
