I had to write this comment...
I was rotation during my junior year in a level I trauma center.
I saw how surgical programs these days were going down in education.
Surgery and Medicine as a field only allows progressive exposure and teaching.
You have to earn to become promoted to next year as resident and even from a junior attending to senior one.
But, in this hospital I saw the chief of surgery creating a high school programs.
He has like junior high kids in scrubs pushing patient carts going from SICU to OR. The worse thing was that there was not proper teaching of residents and medical students.
I was thinking i thought a teaching program supposed to place emphasis on residents and medical students. But, this place had like junior high kids running about like a circus pretending to be like Trauma from TLC channel.
It looked to me how training programs are becoming decadent and losing their mission. The leadership comes from above......
NO wonder we have many graduating clue less about their future...
In other places, I have seen attending teaching the PA students and not the medical stud or residents. That was very stupid too....
I felt very bad for the resident and the medical students...
We got bunch of screw balls out there pretending to do academic medicine.
What they are doing is selling their souls....
I aspire to achieve the rank of academic surgeon and to lead in the right direction. Keep the ranks well organized...no BS....kick any attending who may seem to be purely rectal material.......
TEach by training level.......teach those who will go out to work first....
Then those following them....
