what procedures would you like to see?

The second week of August, I will be shadowing a nurse practitioner who works for a vascular surgery practice. I will be observing in the OR while I am there. She told me to think of some procedures that I would like to see and she would see what she would be able to get us in on. I am SOOOOOO Excited! Surgery is something that I am interested in as well as cardio/ vascular.

If you were able to see any type of surgery/ procedure, what would it be?

    I saw a CABG, very interesting.

    Not really a vascular surgery, but a Whipple is really neat to watch. As far as vascular goes, Carotid Endarterectomies fascinate me.

    I would choose the carotid endcartectomy as well. It'll make you rethink some food choices.

    You basically hit all the major ones. I liked the Fem Pop for some reason as well

    I would LOVE to see a heart transplant.... but I don't think that there is much standing room when that happens :)

    So far I've seen a CABG and a Liver biopsy...
