| american board of surgery recertification exam: On Call J. Lottmann MD, 2014-10-27 On Call is an autobiography of J. Lottman, a female surgeon that she hopes will inspire other male and female surgeons to consider becoming rural surgeons. There aren’t many rural surgeons around, making this an uncommon autobiography and practice. It spans a thirty-year practice from 1981 to 2011, after her schooling and training. Dr. Lottmann explains the distinctiveness of a rural surgery practice and how it differs from an urban practice. She explains the scope of general surgery and her surgical caseload changes over those thirty years. Advanced surgical techniques for rural surgeons have significantly changed since she began her career. Although there has been significant medical advancement, a rural surgeon can find it challenging to offer the most up-to-date procedures in a small rural hospital due to the cost of the equipment. On Call will take you through Dr. Lottman’s training, practice, and some of her most memorable cases, challenges, and triumphs. She also shares the unique challenges of female surgeons as they navigate marriage and motherhood and being a surgeon—frequently, the only one in town. Dr. Lottmann hopes her autobiography will encourage medical students to pursue a career in rural surgery because there is a great need for them in this country. |
| american board of surgery recertification exam: Challenging Operations Katherine C. Kellogg, 2011-07-30 In 2003, in the face of errors and accidents caused by medical and surgical trainees, the American Council of Graduate Medical Education mandated a reduction in resident work hours to eighty per week. Over the course of two and a half years spent observing residents and staff surgeons trying to implement this new regulation, Katherine C. Kellogg discovered that resistance to it was both strong and successful—in fact, two of the three hospitals she studied failed to make the change. Challenging Operations takes up the apparent paradox of medical professionals resisting reforms designed to help them and their patients. Through vivid anecdotes, interviews, and incisive observation and analysis, Kellogg shows the complex ways that institutional reforms spark resistance when they challenge long-standing beliefs, roles, and systems of authority. At a time when numerous policies have been enacted to address the nation’s soaring medical costs, uneven access to care, and shortage of primary-care physicians, Challenging Operations sheds new light on the difficulty of implementing reforms and offers concrete recommendations for effectively meeting that challenge. |

| american board of surgery recertification exam: The Surgical Oncology Review Aryan Meknat M.D., 2022-06-20 Surgical Oncology, in the context of General Surgery, can account for some of the more difficult questions on the ABSITE and the American Board of Surgery Qualifying exam. This topic is often difficult to study for because of the lack of a singular resource to draw from. The material is delivered in confusing algorithms, in the middle or end of dense textbook chapters, or else merely glossed over in review books. This is unfortunate because as general surgery residents we need to have surgical oncologic knowledge at our fingertips. This is an organized and concise review of Surgical Oncology, as it pertains to General Surgery. This review provides applicable screening guidelines/pertinent diagnostic tests/need-to-know staging, a comprehensive list of tumor markers and genetic mutations, and indications for surgery/neoadjuvant & adjuvant therapy/palliative therapy. Revised and up to date content that will allow you to spend more time studying and save you from searching for the latest guidelines. |

| american board of surgery recertification exam: Taking a Stand Rand Paul, 2015-05-26 Senator Rand Paul, leading national politician and 2016 Presidential candidate, presents his vision for America. From his electrifying thirteen-hour filibuster against administration-orchestrated drone strikes against U.S. citizens, to leading the discourse on criminal justice, Senator Rand Paul has taken Washington by storm. His outreach to this country's minority communities alone- championing reforms of mandatory minimum sentencing, school choice, and the creation of enterprise zones for economically depressed areas- distinguishes him as a politician and Republican the likes of which are rarely seen. What lies ahead is Senator Paul's plan for America, where lower taxes and smaller government empower a muscular and expansive middle class; an America that doesn't engage in nation-building or fight wars where the best outcome is stalemate; an America that believes in constitutionally protected liberty and the separation of powers. |
