    Hey doc idk if you're comfortable discussing this, but I figured I'd ask since I'm an M1 who's interested in GS. I've heard that the reality of the lifestyle when you're an attending can be brutal and often times you're relegated to a handful of procedures while the rest get handed off to specialists. I'm also concerned about compensation which doesn't seem to be the greatest relative to the time you're spending in the hospital. Can you comment on any of that? Thanks

    You’re days are long but you still look great and don’t seem tired but I’m sure you crash as soon as you get home. I’ve had surgery only twice in my life but the hospital staff always are so nice and helpful and treat all the patients with care and explain what they’ll be doing in surgery. I love that when I’m in the waiting area before surgery, they talk to me, we joke and they made me feel at ease, plus just praying helps me feel calm. When I had to go in for a lumpectomy five years ago for stage 1 breast cancer, my first surgery ever (I was 52 at the time), I had to get on that really narrow surgery bed (I really thought I would fall off during surgery! Lol.. but I was just fine before surgery but as soon as wheeled into the surgery room on the gurney bed.. I wanted to cry, I was scared. After I had to get on the surgery bed, one of the nurses who helps in the surgery room, I told her I was scared. She held my hands and prayed for me.. after that I don’t remember anything and it seem to happen so fast. I was an outpatient so my mom and my husband waited for me in the waiting room and my husband took good care of my mom and they took me home by 7p.m. I was fine and groggy and my mom cooked dinner for us.. Her version of Goulash, the Mexican way! Lol.. it’s like spaghetti but with elbow macaroni with a little salsa added, not too spicy after my surgery, great comfort food. To my surprise, I wasn’t in any pain and didn’t need pain meds! I just took Tylenol when I needed to. But no pain and I had some kind of skin glue instead of stitches. I so appreciate all the people working in the medical field and all the long hours they put in. 💖😁

I think we - as health care providers have to remember that even though we do this every day for each patient this may be the only time you ever have surgery. & it's ok to feel scared! It's our job to provide you with all the information going into surgery so that you are at ease! Again - thank you so much for sharing and I'm so glad you had a good experience. I hope you are and continue to do well! :)
