Surgeons, Dai'Asia Highsmith [top novels of all time TXT] 📗

Surgeons can be found all over the world.  Each year more than 98,000 people die during surgery.  However, many surgeons lose patients during surgery and that’s why there’s different areas for certain surgeons.  ”surgeons study anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, medical ethics, and laws in governing medicine” (“Physicians and Surgeons “4).  Also “they gain practical skills, learning to take medical histories, examine patients, and diagnose illnesses” (4). “Many surgeons choose to specialize in certain areas such as orthopedic surgery, neurological surgery” etc (2). They also “treat injuries, diseases, and deformities through operations” (2).  As a result, all surgeons work to better lives for people.

To become a surgeon it might take a long time because “a few medical schools last up to 6-8 years” (“Physicians and Surgeons” 4).  In order to get into medical schools you need to have a four year “bachelor's degree” (4) While students are going to school they “usually complete work in biology, chemistry, physics, math, and english” (4).  “Medical schools are highly competitive so, you must submit transcripts, scored from the medical college admission test (MCAT), and letters of recommendation” (4). Medical “schools also look for an applicants personality, leadership, qualities, and participation in extracurricular activities” (4) .  Once students get in medical school they spend “their first two years in laboratories and classrooms, taking courses such as anatomy,pharmacology , biochemistry, medical ethics, and laws governing medicine” (4). Students then “gain practical skills such as learning to take medical histories, examine patients, and diagnose illnesses” (4).  After being in laboratories and classrooms “students spend their last two years working with patients under the guidance of experienced physicians in hospitals and clinics” (4). Once this is complete they are ready to take their skills to the workforce.

After all these years of education “many surgeons choose to specialize in a certain area”  (“Physicians and Surgeons” 4). Some of those areas are “orthopedic surgery, neurological surgery, cardiovascular surgery,and plastic or reconstructive surgery”(2). “Surgeons examine patients , perform and interpret diagnostic test, and counsel patients on preventive healthcare”  (“What is the job description for surgeons?”) (2). They also treat injuries, diseases and deformities through operations (“Physicians and Surgeons” 2). Once a surgeon pick a certain area to specialize in they pick a “surgical specialist and subspecialist” (“What is the job description for surgeons?” 2).  These surgical specialist and subspecialist are allergist, cardiologist, dermatologist, gastroenterologist, ophthalmologist, pathologist, and radiologist (2). Many surgeons choose to work in other fields such as medical researchers or public policy (2). Once a surgeon do these things they are fit to be a great surgeon.

Even though a surgeon's job is very demanding they are very big job to society. “Surgeons have one of the most important roles in medicine” (“What is the job description for surgeons?”4).  They “improve the quality of life for patients with chronic and restrictive injuries” (4). Also, “they deal with people suffering from unexpected traumas” (4). All surgeons love their patients that’s why they deal with “the most extreme cases of physical health, injury, and disease” (4).  “Surgeons deal with preoperative diagnosis of the patient, for performing the operation, and for providing the patient with postoperative surgical care and treatment (“The job advantages of being a surgeon” 1). They also “cut cancerous cells or they can replace organs so a person can live a longer healthier life”(“Physicians and Surgeons” 5). Surgeons help people live longer and that’s why this job is a benefit to society.

Surgeons help make better lives for people around the world.  To become a surgeon means you need a “bachelor’s degree and you need to be in medical school for 6-8 years”(“Physicians and Surgeons” 4).  They treat injuries, diseases, and deformities through operations. Surgeons have one of the most important jobs in medicine and in society.  All surgeons helps to better lives all around the world.

The job description for surgeons varies depending on what environment they are practicing in. Many surgeons find themselves in a multifaceted career that allows them to put their skills to good use in a combination of workplace settings. Although the workplace settings may vary, one factor remains the same: the surgical profession is one of responsibility and leadership. The surgeon is responsible for the preoperative diagnosis of the patient, for performing the operation, and for providing the patient with postoperative surgical care and treatment. The surgeon is also looked upon as the leader of the surgical team. During the course of an operation, the surgeon must make important decisions about the patient's health, safety, and welfare. Furthermore, the surgeon must work to ensure cooperation among the other members of the surgical team, which typically includes another surgeon or qualified person who acts as the surgeon's assistant, the anesthesiologist, and operating room nurses.
