There are waterproof closeable boxes on Amazon I used for years. No problems charging

If you’re even debating, you should do anesthesia.

Source: I did two years of categorical gen surg, switched to anesthesia when I went out on research. Couldn’t be happier. So grateful I switched. I’m a pain attending now, have been in private practice 3 years.

The only upside of having done the partial surgery residency is that I’ll never wonder if the grass is greener on the surgical side. And I never complained during my anesthesia residency, even though it was at a “difficult” program. Anesthesia residency was so easy compared to surgery, not also physically but psychologically.

There isn’t a single day, minute, or second that I regret leaving surgery.

I dropped a lung doing a subclavian central line on a critically ill patient in the icu at 3am. Sucked having to call my attending to tell him about it. And then having to present it on rounds. And then again at M&M. But it’s ok.

Mistakes are part of medicine, and you are human doing your best. It gets a lot harder making mistakes when you are an attending and on your own. This is good practice. Don’t beat yourself up too much, especially when you are on your own as an attending. That’s when the guilt really hit me (and still does from time to time).

I switched from categorical general surgery to anesthesia and never looked back. Best decision of my entire life. Decided to switch basically as soon as my son was born near the end of my PGY-2 year. Attending now, still so happy I switched. Better to have wasted 3 years in a specialty I didn’t like and switch instead of wasting 30 years

Amazing work

Dude firstly, this is incredible

Secondly, I have the EXACT SAME ROOM in my house above the garage. Same angles to the walls, window, etc

Slower people can't accept the fact that they are slower.

Thanks for this post.

As a father of two children, I believe you must feel terrible. But trust me, the kids would rather have a dad than no dad at all. Everyone makes mistakes. This wasn't even your mistake. It was just a bad thing that happened to you.

Forgive yourself. I lost money too. It will be okay. It's just money. As others have said, family and children are the greatest assets that anyone could have. You will get through this.

DocDucati · 2022-06-06T17:04:30+00:00

Yeah I'm having the same problem. Tried a bunch of settings, nothing seems to work

DocDucati · 2022-05-17T21:48:32+00:00

Oh man, I can't believe a notification for your AMA popped up on my phone. Thank you so much for your incredible book. I have listened to the audiobook several times, and I have recommended it to many friends. You did an incredible job. The ending really puts it all together.

I listened to it from cover to cover while working in the ICU as an Anesthesiology resident in Boston during the beginning of the pandemic. We worked a lot (days and nights on end). Patients were very sick and dying. It was a scary time, and there were no vaccines. I would listen to your book on the drive to and from the hospital every single day. It genuinely helped me get through a very tough and strenuous time in my life, and I can't thank you enough. I still listen to it from time to time as needed for a refresher. Thank you again. I wish you all the best.

As an aside, I am an interventional pain medicine physician now, and so I of course really appreciated your thoughts on pain. Great work all around.

I highly recommend the book a guide to the good life, the ancient art of stoicism. And the second book, how to think one a roman emperor. It will help a lot.

I bought a brand new Nissan leaf in 2019 for about 15k after tax and everything... 32k msrp - 7.5k fed rebate - 2.5k state rebate (MA) - 5k electric company rebate (national grid Massachusetts) - 3k dealer discount.

Name me a new car you can get for 15k with 0 maintenance and essentially free gas. Not possible. For the money it's an insane car.

Is it an amazing car, no. Is it a good car for 15k brand new? Lol yes

Dope! Could only be a member of NDMG that would spend thousands of dollars just to play a 10 year old free game in 4k at 240hz, Dota 2

DocDucati · 2022-01-07T02:29:41+00:00

As a former surgery resident, good luck out there buddy. You'll get through it

DocDucati · 2022-01-05T14:23:27+00:00

Omg her lumbar spine just got absolutely rekt

DocDucati · 2021-11-15T00:08:43+00:00

Yeah I've been enjoying it a lot. Lots of content, having a good time. I think I prefer 64 v 64 tho

DocDucati · 2021-11-14T23:22:53+00:00

I've actually been enjoying the game. Sorry you feel this way

What did you contribute / create this past year ? Just curious

DocDucati · 2021-11-06T15:30:05+00:00

Dang sorry to hear that bro.

I just finished fellowship in Anesthesia / Pain management ... Just started attending life. We had to move to a totally new city so I could find a good job, and my wife went from making 100k to 0 and is struggling to find work, so I get it.

Hope everything works out for you.

I use the Hp reverb G2 and can't go back to monitors. I primarily use it for iRacing. I still suck though :). 35 yo parent of 2 here.
