@chainedelespoir Great memories seeing the work done in Benin 🇧🇯 this week. Helping them and evaluating their teaching. Amazing what the African surgeons and anesthetic teams achieve with limited means. We helped a lot of children with caustric oesophageal lesions. @uzleuven

Even the greatest men and women of medicine will at most get half a page when the big book of medicine will be written. Most of us won’t even be mentioned.
What I do however remember are the names of those who made me the clinician I am today as well as those I wished never to become like.
For me, it is the service and the teaching that matters most.

Less than 4 wks til #ANES26, and I'm running for ASA Assistant Treasurer!
I'm committed to the ASA mission. I've been in the ASA House of Delegates for 15 y and Board for 4 y. I've served ASA in education, economics, and as an ASA rep to @AmerMedicalAssn, CPT, and other orgs.

OH DAMN. I’M THE ATTENDING. 😬
When do I ask for help? How fast should I be? What if the CRNA knows more than me? What happens when I screw up?
Four attendings. Their first mistakes. Their awkward moments. What they wish they’d known.
The First 90 Days in Practice: an interactive (and very candid) panel discussion.
No slides. No lectern. Just the conversation you want before July 1.

Thanks @EMarianoMD for the kind remarks and for sharing key points from my talks
Highlights from Ed’s thoughtful counterpoint:
⏳ Blocks eventually wear off
📚 Rebound pain is not new
💉 Catheters provide individualized, titratable analgesia
Thank you @ESRA_Society for the debate
