Testimonials
Dr. X provided me with a 100% hands-on experience. Every day, I had the opportunity to present cases, anesthesia plans, and major concerns, and the doctor would offer valuable suggestions based on my presentation. For patients with simpler conditions, the doctor would ask me about the pharmacological effects of commonly used anesthetic drugs and the management of common anesthesia complications during surgery. For patients with more complex conditions or complicated surgeries, Dr. X would thoroughly explain the surgical procedures and help me identify the most critical points to focus on. These insights into anesthesia management have been incredibly helpful...in addition, the doctor offered valuable advice for my future residency application, such as achieving a high Step 2 CK score, engaging in research, and improving my English communication skills. Dr. X even taught me how to engage in small talk with colleagues.
