hi guys,
for those of you doing your residency in ENT or already an attending when did you gain confidence that you would be able to do surgery? As a first year med student I feel as though I would love surgery but am unsure of my ability to be a good surgeon. I know not anyone can be a surgeon but can you still gain all the skills necessary to become a great surgeon through residency or is there still something else that you are just born with?
