Operate with Zen
While incredibly rewarding and honored vocations, careers in medicine and surgery are fraught with stress, burnout and challenges in work-life balance. OWZ is intended to open dialogue about a mindful approach to surgery - to create a space where physicians and surgeons can enhance their life's work and life experience with a focus on presence, purpose and practical skills. OWZ combines didactic-like monologues to provide baseline information and available scientific data on practical topics like time management, sleep hygiene and burnout; as well as interviews with surgeons and experts to share what works and doesn't work in their daily routines.

Very few physicians finish their career in the location or role in which they started. Aditya Bagrodia, MD (Twitter: @AdityaBagrodia) is a urologic oncologist who recently transitioned from UT Southwestern to UC San Diego at about the same time I transitioned from Johns Hopkins to the University of Pennsylvania. Reasons and rationale for transition are discussed as well as practical considerations for when you are considering moving from one job to another. (Music Credit: Sunshine, Simon Jomphe Lepine.)
