In my 31 years as a surgeon, I worked with several anesthesiologists in my team. I had an anesthesiologist who was 12 years ahead of me in practice. He was oozing with confidence and everything was routine to him. He slept thru my major surgeries. Another anesthesiologist was so old, he wouldn't accept night time procedures. I had a lady anesthesiologist who was talking all the time while I was doing surgery and she covers everything too, from gossip in the hospital and movie industry to political scenarios and wars. Another anesthesiologist was my student in medical school. He entered the hospital scene prompting me to realize that I was getting old. And today, I have a new anesthesiologist who is so new to the field that every change in the anesthesia monitor unit, he jumps all over including my operating field.
