David WarmflashPortland, ORScientist-Physician Tutor -- numerous subjects
I'm a space medicine researcher and NASA-trained astrobiologist, who also authors continuing medical education materials for physicians, does medical communication and science communication and has experience tutoring basic medical sciences and intro clinical sciences. I have written various practice USMLE questions with answer explanations for correct answers and for distractor choices. I have good knowledge about which topics tend to be harder for learners and I can help you preparing for all three steps. I tutor in a way that emphasizes underlying concepts, keeping the need to memorize at a minimum. For example, if you get anxious seeing questions referring to the coagulation cascade, I can help you learn it in ways that make it closer to second nature for you. Dexamethasone suppression test to work up Cushing syndrome, thyroid function tests, hematological parameters -- don't worry. We'll go through it in ways that will make you enjoy it.
