Does trauma surgery sound thrilling or a nightmare to you? Leave a comment with your thoughts!
Great interview! I worked in trauma (all areas) for 6+ years right out of school and it's everything he said it is!
Wow! Great for you and thanks for your input
Don't be afraid to get therapy either. I've been doing this 15 years and it helps. Doesn't fix anything but helps you process the grief and deal with loss. Being exposed to this level of trauma and death will change the way you see the world.
Such a great point! We like to think that we’re tough, and can handle anything that comes our way, but we face some heavy things in medicine, and there’s no shame in talking to someone about it!
Thank you! That looks like a rough job. Thank you for making this clear. We appreciate you
You are so welcome!
Train under mentorship for the day that you do find yourself by yourself
Definitely, good mentorship is key!!
Hello I'm not sure if its possible but im person that just started college and i want to become a trauma surgeon but im not really sure how its possible and I wanted to see if there was a way i can talk to a doctor to ask how they did it, if its possible if not thank you for your time
Hi. I'm not really sure if you are asking about become a Trauma Surgeon, which is a physician, or if you want to work in Trauma Surgery as a PA? Either way, I don't have experience working in Trauma Surgery. Here is a link about how to become a trauma surgeon that might be helpful if you are looking at the MD route. medschoolinsiders.com/medical-student/so-you-want-to-be-a-trauma-surgeon/. If you want to speak to a PA, you could contact Andrew, the PA I interviewed in this video. His email is in the description box below the video. Best wishes on your journey!
