Earlier today I posted a video of a challenging robotic operation I had recently completed. But that was easy compared to this ballet bun I crushed today! #dadgoals #ballerinasareintimidating

Congrats to all the interns for surviving day 1! Maybe it went great. Maybe it didn’t. I was on call my first day of internship, now 15 years ago. I left ~30 hours later, on zero sleep, & when I got home broke down in tears.

Fantastic thread. Even more compelling for laparoscopy when you may not see that you have not properly placed the sponge for hemostasis. UAB Surgery
