I know the general thought about surgeons skills rotting away from underutalization and lack of varied case loads. What about anesthegiologist? Are gas docs at risk of skill atrophy?

So I assume that there is not relearning period when one drops the uniform and starts wearing a shirt and tie. I would even go as far as to assuem the same for pain med. Do you concure?
