Personal projects
Here is where they all are. I have been hunting for sites written and prepared by individual colleagues. Well the richest seam so far is to be found in the blogosphere! Here are some notable personal contributions from colleagues around the globe.
Surgeonsblog
Wherein a surgeon tells some stories, shares some thoughts, and occasionally shoots off his mouth. Like a surgeon.
Chris Oliver's blog
Christopher Oliver is an orthopaedic and trauma surgeon in Edinburgh and has a highly acclaimed "blogspot". He records his own personal journey to health and it is both interesting and frank. Since I had a small part to play and get a mention I decided to highlight his story. Have a look - inspiring stuff.
Scalpel or Sword?
Because sometimes you need more than a scalpel!
The Angry Medic
The Angry Medic is "an idiot who got into Cambridge University by virtue of his unusually attractive eyelashes. He is currently ranting and raving his way through the freakshow and wide-screen madness that is the medical course at Cambridge University, and finds time to express an opinion on medicine, social issues, and anything else he considers pains in the gluteal region."
Addicted to medblogs
This is much more light hearted. Ranges from the irreverent to the slightly dodgy. With that introduction - can you stay away?
A chance to cut
A perspective on medical and other issues from a general surgeon
Surgical Diversions
Here a surgeon brings together lots of (geek laden) stuff as he spends his "time out of the operating room."
Fingers and Tubes!
Intriguing name. Notes, quotes and anecdotes of all sorts. Also you will find a large number of links to other medical and surgical blogs. If you find any wirth sharing let me know.
Have a great summer. Mine has been over punctuated by excursions in intercollegiate politics but there is nothing of compelling substance to report. Suprised? Till next month...best wishes.
