So I'm guna finally put this debate to rest
In this video , "So Im guna finally put this debate to rest.." I go over the age old debate about luck or hard work , which one contributes more to the success of a physician or anyone in medicine. I reference this article here blogs.scientificamerican.com/beautiful-minds/the-role-of-luck-in-life-success-is-far-greater-than-we-realized/, quite a bit in this article.
My name is Dr. Karen Francois and I am a 5th year Attending physician based out of NY. These stories will chronicle my life with Anesthesia, as an Anesthesiologist and home life with my husband and 3 children. Through these glimpses into my life I hope to inspire and motivate young women or men into seriously considering Anesthesia as a career choice.
I am a Doctor and I as born and raised in the projects of the Bronx NY and I made it to become of highly respected physician , if I can do it then any one else in my situation can do the same.

    I’m applying to medical schools now and I’m REALLY hoping I make it. I was dead set on CAA for a while but I made the choice to go the physician route (for better or worse lol). I’ve shadowed so many anesthesiologists now, and I’m so inspired to get to their level.

    Like others who have posted, I had Propofol used by an anesthiologist prior to having my gastroenterologust do a colonooscooy. From the time that it was injected until I was unconscious was 10 - 15 seconds maximum. This stuff works fast and you remember nothing when you wake up.

    I experienced an MH event in 2000 during a Laproscopy. I couldn't breathe despite being intubated. I threw up all over myself because I couldn't breathe. I cracked almost all my side teeth and was put in a coma. I remember not being able to breathe or move. I suspected I was dying and mistook my leg muscle contractions as me trying desperately to move my toes to signal I was still alive but completely unconscious. It was a horrific event that I never anticipated. No one in either side of my family has it. Some have been tested. It's important for OR staff to talk to the patient in these events as I could still hear one soothing voice (female) talking to me. Telling me I would be ok. I heard hope in her voice amongst the otherwise scary excitement around me. I woke up 2 days later in ICU to a nurse doing Reiki on me. Thank you for this informative video.

    7:29 I LOVE this analogy. While yes, your car can function relatively fine in autopilot, in order to achieve optimal performance and safety, human intervention is ideal. Hence why Anesthesiologists work perioperatively on a case. While some of it is straightforward, it is by no means easy and requires lots of attention and especially coordination.

    No it isn't! Propofol has No antidote! I had an unsedated colonoscopy with no pain. Propofol can increase your risk of bowel perforation by 26% when sedated for colonoscopies. Shocked that propofol is legal to use for such a minor procedure. Again there is No antidote if you run into problems.

    More than other senior doctors, I have noticed it can be nurses and allied health care professionals often female who treat female doctors as lesser than male colleagues. Simple things from doing things like cannulas etc, that they do for the boys but not the girls. Things that they let pass for boys but not girls. Requesting more busy jobs to be completed by girls than boys, administrative stuff that they won't chase the boys for in the same way. Far from universal but it is something I have observed.
