THROUGH THE FACE SHIELD: An impression of internship- a few moments in and out of the hospital that left a young doctor overwhelmed as she took her first steps into the profession she had always dreamt of. She had come to realise that it’s the small moments, be it holding a newborn’s hand or inserting her first IV cannula or even contracting chicken pox while on the job, that she would fondly remember at the end of it.
