Main Kemudian Main Kemudian Senarai Suka DisukaiSurgeons, text topics you want me to cover here. Going from trainee to attending requires a death and rebirth. One identity dies and another is born. Stepping into the identity of an authority, an expert, an attending IS the first step. If you are studying for oral boards or about to graduate, elevating your self-concept is the best thing you can do. Here are some self-concept qualities to consider for a trainee vs attending: Trainee : - In service to patient first, then program and self - Surgery looks easy (it's not) - Self-worth is detached from outcomes - Striving - Revere your mentors' ideas - Say "yes" to everything for approval and popularity (sacrifice your own needs for success) - World is small in a good way; it's a container you signed up for Attending : - In service to patient first, then self and practice/employer/institution - Surgery might seem hard or scary, until you get to know your new environment and build muscle memory and confidence, then it can get easy to the point of boredom - Self-worth is attached to outcomes (can shrink your world) - Stagnation (unless you learn to strive for something you desire again) - Revere your own ideas - Say "no" more than "yes" knowing respect matters more than approval (unless you stay stuck in trainee identity, particularly the story that you have to sacrifice yourself for success) - World can become big if you allow yourself to evolve or world can shrink from anxiety and experiential avoidance Sign up for MASTERS CURVEBALLS IN THE OR (AND LIFE) IN 5 STEPS here .

Main Kemudian Main Kemudian Senarai Suka DisukaiSurgeons, text topics you want me to cover here. "I think we need to stay relentlessly curious. And we need to understand what we're working in and recognize there is nobody who comes to work everyday and thinks I'm going to make somebody else miserable. " - Dr. Wendy Dean When service members returning from Iraq and Afghanistan were not responding to PTSD treatments, it became clear that they were not dealing with the anxiety and experiential avoidance caused by PTSD but instead the shame associated with perceived immoral conduct. This specific form of distress is called moral injury : "perpetuating, bearing witness to, or failing to prevent acts that transgress deeply held moral beliefs and expectations" (from If I Betray These Words : Moral Injury in Medicine and Why It's So Hard for Clinicians to Put Patients First by Wendy Dean, MD with Simon Talbot, MD). Whenever the business of medicine gets in the way of our ability to provide care to our patients, we experience some form of moral injury. It's hard to escape moral injury when we have all the responsibility and all of the accountability but none of the autonomy. And that is the system we work in. None of us are completely autonomous. A whopping 78% of US physicians are employed by hospitals, health systems, or other corporate entities, and the meager few of us who are independent are still beholden to insurers for compensation. Because medicine has become corporatized and consolidated over the last several decades, we have slowly given up our ability to provide care efficiently and affordably. Sixty years ago, hospitals were locally owned and operated and decisions made by experts in healthcare--the physicians. In the 1970's, doctors formed groups and outsourced operations to administrators, entering an era of skyrocketing administrative growth and costs in a system in which executives do not see themselves as responsible to clinicians or patients but to shareholders, who have one goal: to maximize profit. But what can we do about it? In this conversation, I discuss the broken US healthcare system with Dr. Wendy Dean and Dr. Matt Ramsey and what we can do right now to make a dent in fixing this behemoth of a problem. We may have gotten into this profession to practice medicine and surgery, but it is part of our job to learn the bureaucracy and the business sooner rather than later. We have to understand where we are, and from there, maybe, just maybe, we can collectively come together to creatively solve this thing.

Anxiety must be replaced, not erased We are all born with a powerful force within us that we can use at any time to melt our anxiety and solve problems: creativity.

That said, most of us are addicted to something, be it behaviors like overworking, overeating, overspending, numbing out on socials, or some other substance or behavior that creates feel-good neurotransmitters. There is no shame in the human desire for comfort, which, at its heart, is the source of addiction. Take care of yourself, seek professional help if you need it, and listen with care.*** ENT surgeon, friend from residency, and burnout coach in training, Dr. Brett Cordes comes on the podcast to talk about how and why addiction upended his seemingly perfect life. He discusses what led him down that dark path, what it was like to be investigated by the Texas Medical Board (news flash: they treat doctors like crap), and the exciting new path his life is on now. If we had "most likely" contests in residency like we do in high school, Brett would have easily been voted "Most Likely to Succeed". His story illustrates how none of us are exempt from mental health struggles or substance abuse. We are NOT super humans. We are regular humans navigating a challenging, identity-consuming career and doing our best to manage those inevitable moments of shame, self-doubt, inadequacy, and suffering without crashing and burning.

In this episode, otolaryngologist and veteran podcaster, Dr. Brad Block, enlightens us on how to give patients our presence simply and easily. Use these tips and you'll create relationships in which 1. patients feel seen, heard, and cared for, 2. you protect your time, and 3. you get rave reviews and explode your reputation. You'll learn: - how it's not about shaming yourself for not listening deeply enough but instead about showing up with presence - that giving patients your presence is an investment that actually saves you time - the importance of engaging with patients about a subject that's completely different than medicine - what it means to appreciate how their symptoms affect them and how that makes them feel - the power of noticing eye color - how bringing enthusiasm and humor can elevate the patient's experience - what it means to identify the "question behind the question" and how to use your "marmoset response" - how we are uniquely positioned to build patient self-confidence and self-efficacy Bradley Block, MD, is a general otolaryngologist and partner at ENT and Allergy Associates on Long Island.

Main Kemudian Main Kemudian Senarai Suka DisukaiSurgeons, text topics you want me to cover here. Physician contract lawyer, Michael Johnson, comes on the podcast to talk about protecting your freedom and your value, and getting it in writing. First, you must get clear on what you want. You may think it’s a big paycheck, but your desires often evolve, and you do yourself a service to make room for future changes of heart. Then, make sure you understand your employer's motivations. What do they want from you? Approach the negotiation with a mindset that you are actually hiring them. You’re the highly skilled and knowledgeable asset, and you get to decide how much you want to pay a potential employer to take care of the back-end business stuff. Some take aways: - There are 3 main components of physician contracts: work obligations, compensation, and exit strategy - Employers may have the power to unilaterally change your work obligation clauses; look for this in your contract - 40% of physicians change jobs in the first 5 years, so know the legal and financial penalties of exit (how much will it cost me if I change my mind?) - Get clear on what's most important to you: control and autonomy, scholarship, or compensation? - There are 3 established insurance-based practice models: true classic academic, perpetual employment, and business owner/private practice - Direct care/concierge is the one practice model that gives you 100% control, freedom, and autonomy, but it comes with potentially more risk and less upfront compensation - You are a small business, and your potential employer is an entity to which you outsource the business end of medicine--billing, collections, equipment, staffing, marketing, etc. - Employers can still subtly or not-so-subtly discriminate against women and BIPOC physicians even if they have standardized the compensation plan -Don’t let financial needs blind you, and always prepare to pivot - Everything is negotiable, even if they say it’s “non-negotiable” Follow Michael on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physiciancontracts Get his course here: https://physiciancontracts.com/ Sign up for MASTERS CURVEBALLS IN THE OR (AND LIFE) IN 5 STEPS here .
