    BTD#2: Vasoplegia (ft Dr. Rachel Baker)

    In this episode, you get to hear from one of my first year residents about an interesting case that they got to experience this past year. Cases like these force residents to think outside of the box and exposes them to interventions we don’t use often in anesthesia. Taking moments like these to expand on their learning by turning it into a case report or poster presentation is what truly helps residents excel in their learning. Dr. Rachel Baker did just that and is here to share her experience with you all!

    CMO38: Farewell to Fellowship Part 3 (ft. Drs Ayesha Gittens and Jim Devanney)

    In this last episode of interviewing my co-fellows, I bring in Ayesha and Jim to share their experiences this past year. They are two examples of avenues outside of Anesthesia and Surgical training that can still get you into ICU fellowship. Their unique perspectives have really broadened the knowledge base and breadth of conversations that we have amongst ourselves in our fellows office, and they are extremely warm-hearted people I am proud to call my friends.
