I love my #neurosurgery job and I know it is a privilege to do what I do. But I am also aware that on my death bed I won't wish that I had done another 100 ACDFs. Work-life integration matters and makes us better doctors. @WomenSurgeons @CNS_Update @WINSneurosurge1 @youngneuros.

@MeganGrammatico It called status leveling, we have to befriend nurses, participate in nursing tasks and be hyper available to get anything done - this leads to superior care but also to burn out and attrition of female MDs @arghavan_salles wrote about this.

Why do women end up doing more non-promotable tasks?⬇️ Ladies beware ! Research-related task are more promotable than serving on a low-ranking committees @WomenSurgeons @RUBraveEnough @JulieSilverMD @WINSneurosurge1.
Classic struggle especially in academic medicine where so much non-promotional work is necessary for day-to-day department function. Strong mentors are key! @AmeekaPannu @MHayes_MD @MartinaStippler
