Hi folks,
I have a quick question for those of you who have done anesthesia observerships. After searching on the forums, I came across user Cognitus so I am definitely interested in reaching out to you, if you do not mind private messaging me. Even if you are not Cognitus but have experience with anesthesia observerships.
I completed 2 years of general surgery in 2012-2014, followed by Preventive Medicine residency in 2016-2018. My steps are in upper 220s, I have both research training, poster presentations and several research publications. I have been in primary care for several years now but am starting to miss working with my hands and miss working with patients during the peri-operative period.
I have made arrangements to work part-time so I can explore anesthesia and hopefully apply this fall or next year. I do realize advanced positions are limited so I am willing to repeat my internship year in general surgery.
I would love to talk one on one with anyone who has gone down a similar path of choosing Anesthesiology and doing obeserverships after completing or leaving another residency. I never did any rotations in Anesthesia.
My questions for observerships are:
1. Is this just like a Sub-I?
2. How did you start building a fund of knowledge
3. Any particular observerships you would recommend or stay away from?
Please feel free to PM me directly, especially if you are Cognitus. Thank you for your time!
