Tears Shed in Med

Maria Raveendran and Sheza Qayyum are medical students from the University of Toronto in Canada. They decided that the sometimes hilarious, sometimes horrifying experiences they've had in med school should be shared with the world. Thus, the podcast Tears Shed in Med was born: a no holds barred look into the experiences of two young women navigating the world of medicine.

Episode 12: The Objective Perspective on Electives

The rumours are true. Shez and Mez have returned after a 6-month hiatus with a brand new spicy episode! Catch us spilling the tea about what we've been up to and learn all the behind-the-scenes secrets about electives. Plus, of course, there is an amazing new poem segment that's a certified banger. Happy Valentine's Day TSIM'ers, we <3 you!
