The Careful Surgeon
Shehan Hettiaratchy
What does it feel like to cut someone open with a knife, to know that their life lies in your hands? What does it feel like to be responsible for saving someone's limbs? What does it feel like when you make the wrong, catastrophic, decision during an operation? And how, as a trainee surgeon, do you find the courage to do your first major operation? In this powerful, blood-stopping and incisive insight into the life of a trauma surgeon, Dr Shehan Hettiaratchy takes us into the heart of what it takes to train, practice, perform - and mostly - perfect his surgical skills. Through real-life case studies of patients, he shows us how the emotional connection he makes with them has to be set aside the moment he takes a knife to cut them open.
