I offer a carefully crafted and serviceably proper greeting for this point in the day, articulated with elevated regard yet maintained with a measured formal professionalism appropriate for routine communication.

I extend my formally composed mid day acknowledgments, articulated with measured neutrality and due professional decorum.

Prior to incision, close your eyes & organize a systematic internal review of the entire case, including the instruments to be employed, the anatomical structures, and the imaging, thereby executing a full anticipatory run through. With rare exception, good execution is born of visualization.

I submit a morning greeting written in the tempered voice of a seasoned compatriot and extended to you with careful formality and considerate professionalism.

In the interest of preserving cognitive capital, I now vacate our discourse for the evening, allowing stillness to audit the day’s events in your favour; it is my forecast that the evening provides a surplus of serenity thereby balancing the ledger of peace against the turbulences of the day.

I provide a morning message framed in the dignified cadence of formal exchange and offered with formal professional discretion.

Total Pars. Paper coming out soon. If you’re reviewer 2, please be kind.

I place before you a morning greeting rendered in the careful tone of professional diplomacy and offered with quiet regard.

Physicians still merit an insulated convocation to examine adverse outcomes with candid discourse, free of external intrusion, retaliation, or juridic peril, permitting dispassionate appraisal and coherent remedy in a profession increasingly strained by metric-centric culture imposed from admin.

I extend a respectfully articulated compendium of morning acknowledgments. May your day unfold with methodized professional exactitude, and may your attire reflect both the requisites of the occasion and the distinctive particularities of your personal disposition.
November 22, 2025 at 1:48 PM
I step away for the night, and leave you with my most assiduously refined, decorously maintained and professionally consonant regards.

Rounding and clinic are probably the best continuing education activities I do in practice.

Behold one of the mightiest tools in mathematics: the camel principle.

I am dead serious. Deep down, this tiny rule is the cog in many methods. Ones that you use every day.

Here is what it is, how it works, and why it is essential:

The lesson here: tiny mathematical curios such as the camel principle are often dismissed as "lacking any applications".

However, such short-sightedness frequently leads astray.

By understanding atoms, you can build skyscrapers.

One blind spot physicians have is a belief that “standardization” is primarily an epistemic tool, and that it’s always a reasonable solution to systemic problems. However, it often serves external power by locking in patterns that curb autonomy while offering the illusion of professional alignment.

I proceed with a certain inscrutable contour, a private edition of my own nature, content to occupy a position that asks for no distinction.

The fact that we don’t have to think about getting clean water frees our mind to think about creative solutions to other problems.

This is how progressive innovation effects future generations rather than “making them dumber” (or making them smarter).

3D bone models are easy to make and I give them to patients frequently (if they make the mistake of showing interest 🤣)
November 21, 2025 at 1:29 AM
At the hazard of rendering myself subject to disapprobatiory castigation and scrutiny, may I be so bold as to humbly offer the following for consideration: I made this model and cut out some of the bone to better show the screw trajectory.

I must now tender my abscondence, trusting that said absquatulations will be recieved with overwhelming respectful regards. May the journey ahead unfold in a manner that both challenges and enriches you, offering opportunities that reflect your remarkable capacity for growth and insight.

Some of the most insightful and intellectually stimulating conversations of my adult life have happened not in a high back chair in front of a crackling fire, but rather across from a co-surgeon whilst operating together.
