OBGYN Pearls of Wisdom*

著者: Melissa Peskin MD
  • サマリー

  • Sometimes being an OBGYN can be really hard. But, if you don't laugh about certain things, you'll cry.

    That's how I feel about residency. Man, was it tough, but the memories and camaraderie i had with my fellow trainees help me cope with past and present. We have so many stories to tell that seem to resonate with junior and senior OBGYN's alike, no matter where one practices OBGYN. One thing's for sure, most TV shows can't capture one molecule of how intense or insane it can be at times.

    Together, with my old residency classmates and colleagues, we will share crazy scenarios as well as our own mistakes, which helped us find our way to becoming excellent and successful physicians and surgeons.

    I have 15+ years of experience and I would like to share my pearls of wisdom with you.

エピソード
  • Meeting of the Minds with Dr. Maiman
    2025/04/08

    Dr. Maiman, author of Every Third Night and The Rainbow Diary, GYN Oncologist and former Chairman of OBGYN at Staten Island University Hospital- North, started his medical career off at Bronx Municipal Hospital Center, now known as Einstein/Montefiore OBGYN Residency.

    We have a frank discussion about residency then and now, medicine, humility, passion, and what characteristics make a great doctor.

    These are some Pearls of Wisdom....

    *Correction: I refer to the the book The Life of Dr. Montefiore by Emmet Hirsch, MD but mispronounced the title, which is in fact, The Education of Dr. Montefiore

  • Lots and Lots of Pearls
    2025/03/21
    • Be tenacious
    • Revile mediocrity
    • Aim for excellence
    • Maintain humility throughout residency and thereafter… there is always more to learn and more to grow.
    • Anticipate potential complications and speak up- you can prevent complications this way
    • Be thorough in your exam and assessment, leave nothing to uncertainty… if you just subject discomfort to ascertain information, then explain this but proceed, for an exam that does not produce thorough findings was not a worthy exam at all.
    • Ask questions! Ask if this makes sense
    • As much as we all love zebras, remember that’s HORSES are much more common
    • Never take short cuts. Be efficient but NO short cuts. Use economy of motion.

    Finally, BE CURIOUS AND PASSIONATE. these two attributes are the fuel you need to be a great physician.
