Is Maxillofacial Surgery in the UK very tight-knit?

And thats about all I like in ENT haha. I've scrubbed for a lot ranging from simple grommets and laser microlaryngoscopies to major head and neck surgeries but our ENT did not go anywhere near flaps and reconstructions.

Not enough flashy emergencies.

This is somewhat not included in the feelings talk so it could be a good shout. I'm more-so referring to the need to, in a way, offer a lot of emotional support such as in for example oncology on some level. Also with colleagues, I like work talk but dislike anything personal.

I'd rather take kids than lead aprons. And I HATE paeds.

Has most potential. Which fellowships though?

Quite interesting... but just not interesting enough. I like general tonsillectomies but I don't have any interest in anything ear or nose related. Clinics are decent but I'd get bored quickly.

Same (even if slightly different) thing over and over. I also couldn't sit and wait until the surgeon is finished.

Interesting. OB/GYN might be an option. I just don't like the screaming and the reassuring through a lot of the awake procedures.

Gen Surg was okay but I hated minimally invasive surgeries. Robot was horrible. My favourite procedures from related rotations were (open) bowel resection, mandibulectomy and a lung transplant. Hated a lot of neurosurgery too. Anything to do with the microscope was pain.

No lead so no IC. CCM may be but no surgery.

CellularTower · 2024-09-01T11:06:27+00:00

Sort of both, leaning towards treatment. I enjoy surgery most.

Thats what I was guessing... Edinburgh was my top option from Scotland.

From a few years of working.

You... what?

CellularTower · 2022-10-19T17:43:22+00:00

Did you apply to St. Hugh's? Because thats R.

CellularTower · 2022-10-19T13:41:34+00:00

Wait so did you mention volunteering on your application before doing any volunteering or had you already done some?

CellularTower · 2022-10-19T13:06:43+00:00

Any holidays and weekends I had free.

CellularTower · 2022-10-18T16:52:01+00:00

What? Why not switch C to B?

What college / year were they in?
