If you’re both happy, that’s the absolutely only thing that matters! I’d still be terrified and/or paranoid after that experience. But, again, that’s just me! I suffer from anxiety, so I’m sure you have absolutely nothing to worry about!! (Absolutely no disrespect meant - I know and have no problem admitting that I’m quirky!!)

    the chief of surgery at one of my med school's hospitals had a crayon drawing done by one of his kids, of which he was very proud, on the wall in his office. It showed a house with stick drawings of a mom and 2 kids labeled "our house" and a rectangular tall building with a sign "hospital" with a stick figure of a man labeled "Daddy's house". Even then, I thought it was very sad.

    Please,, as a neurosurgery patient,, I beg you. Do not forget your patients are people not just skulls to crack. My first neurosurgeon, at a top ten hospital, had his own surgical suite. He was an asshat. I give that you need a bit of a god complex to crack into someone’s brain. But still,,,, he was an asshat. My favorite neurosurgeon was from The Cleveland Clinic, he has become a good friend even out of work. He’s human,, warm and caring. He held my hand and patted my head while I was having a panic attack before my surgery. Everyone else ignored me,,, he got me through that. I will be forever grateful that he is a compassionate human being. He’s done amazing work with deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s patients. He’s an amazing physician, surgeon and person. Please,,,, don’t become one of the many asshats. Become one of the rare compassionate ones. Thx

    My son had a 6cm vestibular schwannoma that required several complex and lengthy (9 hours, 16 hours, and 8 hours) surgeries to fully debulk, plus a nerve anastomosis. The lead neurosurgeon on his case was just amazing, we are so grateful to him. He is incredibly intelligent and committed to his surgery, but also kind and compassionate. He said he was most proud of how the surgical team, comprising different specialities (paediatric neurosurgery, ENT, tumour specialists, paediatric anaesthesiologists) came together to ensure a successful outcome in a rare and complex case. Hats off to you, I wish you every success in your chosen field 🎓

    I was a neurosurgeon and lived like this for a long time. I don't know 5 days in a row but I definetely kept changing ORs due to continuous flow from my ED and elective cases combined for3 days, 2 hrs sleep every now and then. Daily dexamethasone injections around 10.30 AM when cortisol starts to drop and I start feeling exhausted. Now I quit and planning for another specialty, just realized I don't want to spend my life like that. Also looking at colleagues and other people like they are not important is toxic. Most of my NS friends got a divorce at least once. It took me 2 painful years after quitting ns to realize that. I wish I never chose NS in first place.

    I actually have a Neuro-vascular Surgeon and he's one of my favorite Drs! His bedside manner is amazing. He gets my jokes and is able to joke back. Also, I was in the ER once for severe migraine issues that he was concerned were vascular in nature, he actually came down to the ER from his very palatial 4th floor office and sat and talked with me for quite a while. He's the head of the number one stroke team in the state. Clearly he's a one in a million, actual personable neurosurgeon. And then there's my plain, regular neurologist. Who has no personality, no compassion and has given up on me, in person, on 3 separate occasions. He just said he had no idea what my issue was, my problems are too complex and just turned and walked out the door.

    I have multiple types of head pain, including what I now know are primary stabbing headaches/icepick headaches (quite aptly named). When I described them as best I could to one of my past neurologists, she looked at me, raised a very skeptical eyebrow, and stated "I have absolutely *no* idea what you're talking about.". She then turned on her heel, strode away, and that was my last visit with her. I've seen a plethora of doctors in my life, but rarely have I felt so stupid, humiliated, judged, etc. by one. Is it really so hard to say "I'm sorry, but I can't think of anything that matches the pain you're describing. I can refer you to someone who might, though," and then do so? Especially since years later, another neurologist with horrible bedside manner did just that, which is how I finally found out what they're called. I mean, he did it after he made me cry twice, but still.

    Problem too complex for a neurologist reminds me of the auto mechanic who I watch here on KZread who just this very day completed the diagnosis on a car's problems and traced the issue to a bad solder joint on a fuse box component. This car had even been to the dealer who couldn't diagnose the issue. This guy is the go to guy for hard issues. He diagnosed another issue that another dealer ran a parts cannon on and located the issue once he checked on a ground strap that had corroded in 3 years! Giving up on a patient says you don't know how to do your job to start with and you don't know how to try out some cross-discipline consulting to see if the issue crosses over disciplines.

Watching these monitors, he saw my then 4 y/o crashing 12 hrs post op. There is something to say for ped neurosurgeons blurring of work-life balance. BTW, he took up pogo sticking (with a helmet, naturally) & was a huge advocate for ALL parents to give it a try.
