Patient's relatives, who I had discharged yesterday, came specifically to give sweets to me today 🥺😭♥️
Patient had intense headaches owing to meningioma, which had made him irritable since last 8 months.
He used to shout and yell.

Neurosurgery is so beautiful! 🥺😭♥️
Not only the surgical outcome aspect, but conservative as well.
A patient, who had Broca's aphasia, owing to a diffuse SAH and SDH, improved in the most exotic way over 4 days.
Heard him say his full name today.
Was making only sounds on D1.

FYI - I had sent across the paper, way before joining the department.
I'm not presenting, the research done in our institute.
I had sent across my entire CV, and the committee even has granted my scholarship worth 30k for attending the conference.

Other than research? And residency?

Hello all!
I’m Dr Tejas Shelar,

I’ve embarked on the USMLE journey - recently - as I am limited by financial constraints. I’m looking to sponsor my own journey.
I’m looking for postdoctoral research position in Neurosurgery.

Days where I discharge the patients, are so wholesome.
Things I've realised are super important,
1. Post operative care, is non-negotiable
2. Proper rehabilitation by qualified physiotherapists
3. Counselling relatives
4. Regular follow-up

I know exactly how it feels.
Post operative a major orthopaedic surgery, was NBM for 12 hours, and extremely thirsty.
16 year old me, asked the doctor in the observatory room for water.
He explained why he can't, and then he gave few drops via a dropper.
Medicine residents, please whoever has NG tube placed, REMEMBER their mouth is dry like hell and they really feel the thirst. Just imagine what you would feel if you are damn thirsty and no one gives you water. We are of the impression that they are getting enough replacement

Golden advice and something that should be obvious, but isn't to many!
When someone makes a mistake, correct them without being rude or arrogant because guess what, they will learn from the mistake anyway but that rudeness will only make it difficult for them to look up to you for guidance and support. Inspire to change!
