Show Notes
Dr Taro Okamoto joins us to talk the increasingly interesting world of superior capsular reconstruction and what we're actually trying to achieve when the shoulder has given up on us.
This episode isn't just about shoulders. We get into the much harder question of how you survive a career in surgery without letting it take over your entire life. We talk work-life balance, managing stress, switching off, and the highly sophisticated or maybe fun techniques we use to unwind after a day at work.
As always, told with our special blend of the truth, exaggeration and a large smothering of hilarious stories that have got us here.
With thanks to Hollywood Private Hospital for bringing you this episode.
