E186 - Adnan Alseidi on Rethinking Surgical Education
Cold Steel: Canadian Journal of Surgery PodcastShow Notes
Surgery has never been more complicated. The variety of surgical approaches and the complexity of treatment continue to grow exponentially, yet in many institutions, surgical training has not really changed. Dr. Adnan Alseidi, our guest for this episode, is trying to change that. Dr. Adnan Alseidi is a liver and pancreas surgeon at UCSF and is the associate dean of assessment, improvement, and accreditation. He recently gave the Langer lecture at the Canadian Surgical Forum in Montreal this year about surgical education and the path from novice to master. This episode was really a moment for us to ask all our burning questions about surgical education. What are the phases of mastery? Should we really be aiming for mastery? And how do we create trust between attending and trainees? We’d love to hear your thoughts and comments, so email us at [email protected]. Links: Medical school accreditation is outdated.

How can we better prepare ourselves and our trainees for sitting the oral exam? By this point, residents have typically already passed their written exam. And so they have the book knowledge, but how do you get that book knowledge from inside your brain to your mouth and obvious obviously, onto your examiner and onto their page? To answer that question, I invited Dr. Sorena Afshar onto the podcast this week.

AI is likely to change the way that medical and surgical education happens over the next decade. We needed to find out how, and Dr. Samir Grover joined us on this episode to talk about it.
Jeremy Heffner is a trauma and acute care surgeon at Lima Memorial Health System in Ohio. He is also the Chief Operating Officer of SurgeON, a social media company dedicated to surgeons. Heffner was also previously a bioengineer who worked at NIH. He has been incredibly open about his journey and struggles with PTSD as a surgeon, and how those struggles ultimately caused his breakdown. Sadly, Dr. Heffner's story is not unique, and we brought him on the podcast to hear his insights about how many surgeons struggle with PTSD.
