Otolaryngology

My ENT rotation is more than a little bit different than the surgery I am used to. Instead of getting to the hospital at 5am to write notes on patients, I roll in at 7. Instead of following patients pre and post op, I just follow a resident from one surgery to the next. It's a great way to get a taste of what an ENT gets to do, without being tainted with what all an ENT has to do.

Maybe a silly question - what's an ENT? :) Love your blog and love being able to keep up with you and what's going on....and be a little thankful that I'm not there with you! Hope life is great. Miss you!!

Not a silly question, just one of the thousand abbreviations in medicine! :) ENT is Ears, Nose, Throat which is the same as otolaryngology. Think the doc that takes tonsils out.
