Her attitude towards patients and their concerns is the reason why nurses exist.

When I had surgery and was on an anaesthetic, I asked the surgeon "is this what dying feels like". He looked VERY nervous

I love how half the comment section is loving how straight forward she is, and half are annoyed at how condescending she is

as someone who works in the hospital....what a classic surgeon attitude

I love listening to smart people talk about things they're experts in

@awhatsname

the surgeon energy radiating off this woman is palpable. like if I met her in the wild, I would instantly know she was either a surgeon or a fighter pilot. they have the same vibes.

I had a pretty "routine" surgery a few years back and my surgeon was one of the top dogs in the hospital who had been in the business for 25+ years. He was very keen on asking me about how I felt and what sort of pain I was experiencing in our follow-up. The impression he gave me was that pain is obviously to be expected but if you are experiencing pain in unexpected areas or if your recovery is not progressing properly, it could be the sign of an issue that needs to be taken seriously. That just seems like common sense to me.

EMT here. Totally get encouraging to get a normal tourniquet, however part of my training is how to make a makeshift one. Triangle bandage and a pencil, pen, sturdy stick, tie it once then tie in the stick, turn once past the person saying ow then tuck in.

"Suck it up" can be the deadliest thing a doctor can say when they hear a health concern

Love how straight forward she is

@marlkalone7361 Рік тому

She seems like the type of person who speaks louder when someone says they don't understand English.

“You should feel fine in 24-48 hours” key word is SHOULD. Being a patient of a dismissive doctor is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Have more empathy and listen to your patients please.

The “what are you gonna eat after surgery” thing was too real. I remember immediately upon waking up after my hysterectomy, I asked my parents to get me mozzarella sticks
