UCI Health spine surgeon Yu-Po Lee, MD was featured in Becker's Healthcare Spine Review responding to the question, "Early in your career, what was the first big lesson you learned as a spine surgeon?" His response: There are some truisms in medicine. One of which is "always listen to the patient" and another would be "if you did not chart it, then it did not happen." One that is not really mentioned is that "we are part of a community." Spine surgeons, like all physicians, are part of a very small community. It is important to keep in mind how important it is to be respectful and considerate to others in our community. As spine surgeons, we are often placed in an environment where we compete for patients, compete for better payors, and compete for hospital resources. In such a competitive environment, it is not always easy to be considerate to others. But it is important to keep in mind that we create the type of community that we live in. If we see a patient from another surgeon for a second opinion, we can influence how that patient perceives that other surgeon and that can have significant consequences. Early in my career, a patient to whom I had recommended surgery went to seek a second opinion from another local surgeon. The other surgeon explained to the patient that he agreed with my decision and expressed confidence in me. Because of that, the patient felt much more comfortable with me and it made the rest of my interactions with that patient much easier. I was very grateful to that other surgeon, even though I had never met him. We only knew of each other by reputation. But I was also very mindful of extending him the same courtesy whenever I saw any of his patients for a second opinion. One of the biggest lessons that I learned early on was that it is important to be respectful and courteous when speaking of other surgeons when you see their patients.
