After doing 2 weeks of Surgery EC and then 2 weeks of Vascular Surgery at the VA, i find myself back at good old Ben Taub.  There are things that I absolutely despise about that hospital:  poor computer/info-management system, handwritten everything (can't read other people's notes, problems finding patient records), and generally more work.  However, BTGH also has some important Good points:  get to do a lot of stuff and learn more faster.

Its been 2 days so far.  On the first day, I scrubbed in for a Laparoscopic cholecystectomy -- they let me handle the camera.. yaaah!  Today, we saw several patients at Clinics -- primarily post-op patients coming for a followup appointment.
