Computerized Surgical Planning
What draws most to surgery is the ability to concretely effect change on an individual patient's life. However, we also recognize the human element of surgery. Multiple studies have demonstrated that surgeons who perform a procedure with more frequency, on average, have better outcomes. We spend thousands of hours through internship, residency, and fellowship followed by several career-defining years in our early practices as attendings striving to reduce the variance in our outcomes. While complications are inevitable, we hope that as we develop consistency they will become less frequent.
