Improving Surgical Skills and Outcomes
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-66689-6 (ISBN)
Drawing on 25 years of experience, Consultant surgeon Mr Stephen Lash offers a fresh approach to the practice of surgery. His three perspectives or 'Boxes' explore the 'How' the 'What' and the 'Why' of surgery drawing lessons from Elite athletes to Toyota and from pilots to personality. Each box contributes a novel perspective to the surgeon's learning and practice and offers practical tips to apply in theatre. It is easy to read and designed to be used alongside training and stimulate interesting conversations during the surgical debrief, best served with coffee.
"There are endless books about surgical technique, but a woeful lack of information on how to be a surgeon. This book helps fill that gap."
Prof Andrew Luff MA, MBBS, FRCS, FRCOphth
Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon
"I am convinced that it will not only appeal to the surgeons for which it was written but to a wider public as well. After all what is an operating theatre if not an open window on the real world?"
Giampaolo Gini MD PhD
President of the European Vitreo-Retinal Society
This book is an ideal companion to surgeons everywhere from Dentists on the high street to Consultants in specialist units, medical students to key opinion leaders and anyone interested in this particular type of person willing to cut into another in pursuit of wholeness.
Stephen Lash trained as an optometrist (1990-93) and went on to study Medicine at University of Southampton (1995-1999). He trained as an eye surgeon on the Wessex Rotation and completed an MBA at University of Southampton business school in 2009, just before spending one year in Melbourne as a Vitreo-retinal fellow. Mr. Lash became a consultant at University Hospital Southampton in 2010. Part of his job is to train junior doctors and fellows and he has always been fascinated with the question 'What makes a good surgeon?' His MBA facilitated an interest in thinking 'outside the box' and viewing subjects from other perspectives-perambulation.
