Instead of seeking feedback on how you did, itâs more effective to seek advice on how you can do better.

My biggest advice to thoracic surg residents & fellows is to learn thoracic anatomy.
I mean really learn it. Know it backwards, forwards, upside down.
I mean - walk in the room & know what theyâre dissecting in a millisecond glance type know it.

My biggest advice to anesthesia residents and CCM fellows is to learn physiology. Once you learn how to apply/optimize physiology, you can take care of any patient
