1) Thank you CSA & Paul Yost for letting me speak today on something so near to my soul: Learning from Failure. In our culture of medicine, failure is assoc w shame, losing, & wrong doing. If I could give ONE lecture to every trainee + attending doc, it would be this👇🏼

After my talk this morning, I paused for comments. It was my favorite part of the day; people started sharing their own stories of failure … and doctors became HUMANS. We heal in community, when vulnerability replaces accolades & achievements. I 🩷 anesthesiology. Onward!

I learned so much about spinal-induced hypotension during cesarean delivery by Dr. Ruthi Landau #CSASummerConf23 admittedly I don't do #obanes 😁 She shared her tailored approach. No universal protocol works for every patient/setting. Intl recs exist but depend on resources

It was a great week of learning, connecting and recharging with CSA leaders, speakers and attendees at #CSASummerConf23 Highly recommend these conferences! See csahq.org/events/ for upcoming event dates and locations!

Great to see so many leaders in #anesthesiology at the ASA® Board of Directors meeting! Proud to serve as ASA Section Chair for Education and Research and excited to welcome all attendees to California for #ANES23 this October! Philip R Levin MD Amr Abouleish -- a Paleo-Anesthesiologist

I had the privilege of testifying for the VA Standards of Practice Veterans Healthcare (Supremacy Project) on behalf of CSA ASA® to speak about maintaining physician-led anesthesia care for our Veterans. Maintaining the highest standard of care is paramount for all Veterans.
