What is your favorite anesthesia specialty?
I really don’t have a favorite. I just enjoy all areas but function in a rural access hospital so I am not exposed to a lot of the larger cases and no more OB after many years of call coverage.
Is there any research, thesis, practice projects, missions, or other anesthesia related work you would like to share with our community?
I am nearing the end of my career and still enjoy dong the bread and butter cases. I love teaching students and am blessed to have one every year for a couple of months to teach and promote independent practice in a rural area and the business of Anesthesia.
