    #3 set up your room. Make sure you have your monitors in place, know what side you want your instruments on and stand on the side you need to be to operate. Don’t give up the surgery before it’s started! #surgicaleducation #residencylife #mentorship #herniasurgery

    Completely agree. The nurse in the room wouldn’t open the stitches I asked for because of cost…. My response. How would you like to do this anastomosis. The things I needed were then opened.

    Fixing all sort of hernias! Pretty sizeable Morgagni hernia fixed at the same time as fixing a large incisional hernia.

    Here is a #subtlesurgeonburn that was used on me today. Co-surgeon walks into the room for their portion of the case. Immediately states “is it time to re-dose antibiotics?” #sizzle

    This was invented by the nurse manager Karen who was tired of surgical residents throwing out that blue and white filter constantly
