Everyone remembers their first time in surgery 😅
The nerves, the smells, trying to remember what’s sterile and what’s… definitely not.
Maybe you were:
• Scrubbed in and shaking a little
• Monitoring anesthesia like your life depended on it
• Trying not to contaminate the entire field 👀
Or maybe you just stood there like:
“Don’t touch anything… don’t breathe wrong…”
💬 Drop your first surgery experience below:
• What procedure was it?
• What was your role?
• What did you learn (or mess up—no judgment 😌)?
These are the moments that shape us and honestly, we’ve ALL been there.
I’ll go first:
First surgery: Pyometra on a rotator
Role: Learning anesthesia
Lesson: If you feel hot like you will faint sit down! It’s ok 😂
Let’s hear your stories 🐾
