Happy National Doctors' Day!
I want to celebrate the hard work of my fellow colleagues, teachers, and mentors. You inspire me to be the best I can be for myself and for our current and future patients.
I love being a doctor. I love being a neurosurgeon. Despite the chronic stress, the long hours, the missed social gathering with friends and missed chinese new year celebrations with family, the carpel tunnel syndrome, the headaches, both figurative from dealing with denials of insurance companies, and literal migraines from lack of sleep and focus through the microscope for hours at a time, it's all worth it. Healing one patient or saving one life makes it all worth it. Thank you to my colleagues, my OR team, and my mentors. And thank you to my patients who entrusted me more than a thousand times with your life.
