We place great importance on all forms of feedback, recognizing its value in shaping our courses. It’s a common experience for doctors to gain a deeper appreciation of our training upon completion. They often have 'ah-ha' moments as they realize the significance of the detailed and seemingly minor pieces of information imparted during the course, understanding how these can make a substantial difference in their practice. As an education-focused organization, our aim is not to provide ad-hoc, sideline training or to upsell products. Instead, we dedicate our efforts to meticulously planning and supporting our certified doctors in achieving superior patient outcomes safely. Being ECAMS certified is synonymous with enhancing patient satisfaction, fostering loyalty, and crucially, minimizing complications. Choose to be ECAMS certified – it’s a decision that elevates your practice.

Have you ever met a “surgical monster?” A complete command and control junkie, someone who loves dominating the room. Assertiveness, strength, and control are all important traits in the OR - but I’m sure you’ve met a surgeon or two that takes these to the extreme, outside the OR as well. Unfortunately much of this pattern can be traced back to surgical training. And to a broader extent, the training that all physicians and providers go through. As one recent surgeon I met with shared, “I learned to be a monster, Gail.” And while the stereotype is largely of male surgeons, surgical training has a serious impact on female surgeons as well. In last week’s KevinMD piece (link in comments), I examine how damaging surgical training and medical training can be, and walk through the step-by-step process physicians can go through to let go of these patterns. Give it a read in the comments. What are your thoughts? Does medical training set physicians up for success?

🔪Surgical Trainees: Successful surgery starts hours before: 3 Step Guide Do you Agree? Please add more! ⏰1: Schedule patients for your operating list. ‼️This is critical. Consider if they live alone and have no escort, a common reason patients are cancelled on the days. ➡️Do they need a medical pre-operative or elderly medicine, multi-specialty review to determine benefit vs risk, in chronic conditions. ☝🏽Are the patients appropriate for a weekend day case or need a weekday with an inptient stay afterwards. 📑2: Read the patient notes and review their scans and reports, book any outstanding investigtions and Flag this up to the operating consultant and operating managers. 🩻BTW to learn you need to look at scans first then make your mind up and check the radiologist report. 👩⚕️3: Consent patients yourself in clinic (best practice and should really be the standard) BUT if not possible come early and consent patients. #surgicaltrainee #coresurgicaltraining #residentdoctor The Royal College of Surgeons of England Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

Doing something different to get a different result. As Canadian (and all) orthopedic residency programs look to start training a new cohort (and generation) of surgical trainees, PrecisionOS is proud to be part of their journey. Healthcare is rooted in tradition but change, as we know, is the only constant. Globally, the problem every program director agrees on is we need to provide our trainees with more hands on practice and a tool for assessment. Thinking differently about how to provide this is to a new generation of learners is why a large majority of all Canadian Orthopedic Residency programs are working with our solution. To be able to complement their education with an idea that started with 3 guys in a basement, is an honour for us and our entire team.
