I grew up in a medical household. My dad is a pediatrician who was involved with medical research at the National Institutes of Health through my childhood. He later became chairman of Pediatrics at Duke University. My mom was a nurse who ran the geriatrics ward at the local VA medical center. Both of them were committed to helping people and I’m sure it rubbed off on me.
General Surgery
I spent five years at Rush University in Chicago training to be a general surgeon. The training taught me how to operate but also, how to make decisions. The hardest thing to master as a surgeon is knowing when not to operate. I also learned that the exhilaration of seeing people get better before my eyes was intoxicating. Unlike general surgery, where patients were often at their lowest after a diagnosis of cancer, a trauma or while in pain from a chronic disease, plastic surgery offered primarily healthy patients who were happy and appreciative of my work. I was hooked.
On Plastic Surgery
Plastic Surgery is an art. We are trained to be the ones who other surgeons call when they get in trouble. When plastic surgeons sit for their board exams, the examiners want to know that you can get out a jam. I remember being asked not just what to do to solve a problem, but what to do when that solution failed and the next solution after that. Such a breadth of knowledge is what sets plastic surgeons apart from cookie cutter “cosmetic surgeons”. Our tool bag is full.
Reaching out
In high school, I saw a segment on 60 Minutes discussing the work of a group of volunteer plastic surgeons who travelled abroad to perform free surgery. The idea stayed with me and I’ve had the opportunity to do such work on two trips to Africa, one to Kenya and one to Ghana. The trips are always a mix of emotions: humbling, gratifying, frustrating and ultimately, never long enough to do all we want to do. They do put everything in perspective; not just regarding patients and their problems, but regarding life and what’s really valuable.
