My usual recommendation for this kind of thing is to look for stuff you can pirate that US grads are using. Most US speciality boards have at least on killer app or test prep book. Easy to nab on Libgen or whatever.

Obviously might end up with different areas of focus but overall should get the job done?

Yes this is always my plan - straight to PT. Obviously I have more information which makes things a bit easier for me.

In the U.S. you do need to ensure your insurance will allow this, but a local PT can usually help walk you through that.

it really shouldn't taste like fried rice

You mean like....good?

I think I'm just expecting it to taste like fried rice and it doesn't. Might be an expectation thing.

.... I think I'm just a heathen, I've been to the few places in the US with legit stuff and still meh

And if I recall correctly the author is an actual straight up SneerClub poster.

beyond a fondness for biryani.

Can you change my view that Biryani is just crappy fried rice?

The more healthy hospitals I've worked in have often had residents (and sometimes attendings) cross lecture - psychiatry explains capacity, surgery comes to IM to explain wound case basics etc.

If you feel like tilting at windmills its a nice thing to try.

The meme in the U.S. is that the majority of Psych (and to a lesser extent Neuro) consults are inappropriate. Both tend to get Delirium/TME consults for which the recommendation is "fix the underlying medical problem" (with a side helping of "no this 85 year old grandma does not have late onset schizophrenia). Psych also gets capacity consults - any physician can determine capacity and should be able to do so unless something weird is going on. You call Psych if mental illness is complicating things only.
