Plenty of new nurses & techs in the OR. Sharing consistency helps the team. Same set up every time to start an ACDF. Helps them be ready for what I ask for, it’s reproducible & creates a script for the trainee working w/ me to learn.

The Fellowship retreat completely blew me away! PHENOMENAL talks on advocacy, leadership, and service by Drs. Zachary Brian, Benjamin Gilmer and Trisha White. The fellows are all so impressive and inspiring- it’s an honor to learn from them!

Long calls days/ORs/week…
Getting to chill with these guys- not long enough.

Stopped to hang w/some pretty amazing people after EBARS- a great arthroplasty conference. I got to see leaders in the field, connect w/old friends & see everyone welcome residents.
