Hi Michael, since I am at a teaching hospital I have a few mentees within the residency there. I would gladly help, my recommendation is to find an anesthesiologist to work/rotate with at your institution who can teach and advise you based on observations and your interactions. That person could also write you a letter of recommendation when the time for residency application comes. All the best to you!

Hi Dr. Francois! For those who are interested in anesthesia could you answer some specific questions for me? #1) How much external medicine is involved in the field (I.e. fighting with insurance companies, documentation) #2) I like general medicine, how much of that knowledge is preserved in anesthesia or do you lose a lot of that gen Med knowledge in this specialty? #3) How many cases are you responsible for on a daily basis, including supervision of CRNAs Thank you for answering in advance! Have a blessed weekend!
@3anesthesiame404 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching! As far as non-clinical or external medicine I do almost all my charting/admin work AT WORK. I do not bring any of that home by deliberate choice. I am most satisfied with the separation of home and work. In my practice there’s really not much physician involvement with insurance companies (academic practice) though I’m sure there’s variation with types and size of practices. To answer the 2nd question, I think the field of anesthesiology allows for good broad preservation of knowledge as you have to consider the patient’s histories when devising your plan and manage intraop problems with differential diagnoses based on a strong physiology knowledge base. However, it is a specialty, and with every specialty you narrow down your scope and focus your practice..so if ask me about a patient with porphyria right now I’d have to Google it. (Haven’t had to deal with it/know about it since 2nd yr med school) 🤷🏾♀️ Lastly, my days can be very different from one to the next. For instance, today I only had one very complicated case with 1 resident, where as last Friday I had 3 rooms with 3 CRNAs. So, it really depends on where you work. Some days I work alone and can do 3-4 cases solo. Hope this helps!

Awesome video Dr. Francois and thanks!! Quick question, how much are current anesthesiology residents trained on the "loss of resistance" technique for placing blind epidurals/spinals? I was under the impression that ultrasound usage is becoming more of the standard practice when doing those procedures?? 🤔
@3anesthesiame404 жыл бұрын
During residency you’re trained in loss of resistance technique for epidurals as the basic method. Ultrasound is being used more frequently, especially in the setting of a potentially difficult placement. Currently though, it’s not yet the standard of care to use ultrasound every time. I could only Imagine the logistics of a busy labor and delivery unit and having to use an ultrasound under sterile technique to place 20 + epidurals (my record for one overnight call during residency). Not very practical or necessarily safer. Time will tell though.. imaging is the future..Thanks for watching.
@atlboy20024 жыл бұрын
@@3anesthesiame40 wow 20 epidurals in one night!! That definitely will help to make one pretty efficient! Thanks for the reply and I understand your point about knowing the loss of resistance technique for better efficiency on a busy L&D unit. In addition, I'd guess it's good to be trained on both methods just in case an ultrasound machine isn't available! Thanks again for the video 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾

It takes 12 yrs of education after Highschool (in the US) 4 yrs college 4 yrs medical school and 4 yrs anesthesiology residency. Some people complete an optional 1 yr fellowship in anesthesia if you want to sub specialize- an OB fellowship is one area. In the US If you want to become a trained OB/GYN in addition, you would have to do another 4 yrs of residency. Average starting salary in NY for a general anesthesiologist is between 220K and 400k it really depends where you are working. Some standardized tests such as the USMLE are becoming less of the focus (pass/fail) grading system instead of number scores.
