Spencer Cox (Utah’s Lt. Governor) and some of his friends started a podcast this week:
https://www.listennotes.com/c/bab9f6...iends-podcast/
He’d deny it, but it appears to be a kickoff of his 2020 campaign to be governor. I’m a fan of Spencer and his podcast (he’s great on twitter too).

Just listened to the Dr. Death podcast. Holy shit — stay away from any surgeon unless he has proven good outcomes for many years.

What's Good with Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Garcia is awesome. They had an underground hip hop show in the 90s that broke all the greats- Biggie, Nas, etc. This new show is an NPR podcast that is a 30 minute interview format with interesting people. It's great."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

I guess one simple screening test would be to choose a doc who has been at the same hospital for 5+ years. That would probably weed out the worst of the worst docs at least.

I would appreciate your insight into how many surgeries a spine fellow should do. Sounds like this guy did under 100 surgeries as a neurosurgery resident and under 100 as a spine fellow. Seems low — in cardiology it’s typical to have done 1000 procedures in training before you work on your own.
One of the crazy things about medical training is that no matter how many cases you do as a resident/fellow, there is still a moment of truth where you need to step up all by yourself and do a difficult thing on your own as an attending doctor.
I think with cardiology procedures about 98% can do it but there probably are 2% who function fine in the “assistant” role alongside an attending but literally can’t do it safely on their own and should probably quit. I don’t know how you tell somebody who has invested 4 years of med school and 7-8 years of subsequent training that they just can’t cut it — there needs to be a way to weed out these people earlier I guess.

I did a bit over 600 during my fellowship year. Currently I do around 550-600/year although this year I’ll end up well past 600.
I remember doing one of my first pelvic fractures on a 550 lb patient. I was expecting an attending to look over my shoulder and tell me what to do next."You interns are like swallows. You shit all over my patients for six weeks and then fly off."

My aunt passed away yesterday from complications related to a back surgery performed last week."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"
