Life as a surgeon is both gratifying and challenging. This book, which is a memoir of my experiences in surgical residency and beyond, sheds light on the various aspects of being a practicing General Surgeon. I will take you through my journey, delving into the highs and lows that come with being an empathetic surgeon. My aim is to paint a vivid picture of what it means to become a surgeon and to help readers understand the emotional and physical demands of the profession. I believe that this book will be a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about life as a General Surgeon.
