Estelle’s Answer

Neurosurgeons also require great patience. Many of the problems that they manage are lifelong problems or require very tedious work. This is a stressful occupation, so you will need to manage that aspect carefully with exercise, close relationships with friends/family/colleagues, etc.

Rachel’s Answer

As far as technical skills, you will need good hand eye coordination and the ability to perform minute maneuvers under great stress. You will also need stamina because the hours are long.

Richard’s Answer

All physicians work with technology on a daily basis. Charting is done on a computer or tablet; as is reviewing medical imaging.

Neurosurgeons are also performing robot-assisted surgeries.
