Can anyone tell me a day in the life of a orthopedic surgeon?
I want to become a orthopedic surgeon and was just curious what a day to day schedule looked like! Thank you #medicine #orthopedics

Clinic: Evaluate patients prior to surgery. Explain the options including alternative to surgery. Follow up with patients after surgery looking for possible complications.
OR: Perform the surgery with a team including scrub techs, nurses and anesthesiologists.
Rounds: Evaluate patients who are admitted to the hospital before and after surgery.
ER: take calls from ER doctors who are consulting for possible surgical admission.
