I am a recently retired anesthesiologist who was in private practice for 16 years. I have retired to develop the devices, protocols and academic studies that I have pieced together in my 30 years of research. I will be teaching quite a bit more than just the subject matter at hand. I will have real world examples of what advanced concepts the current material that you are studying will ultimately lead to. Keeping an eye outward towards what the information that you are learning will lead to, will greatly benefit you as you continue in your academic journey.
