The real secret to being a great physician (it's not what you think!)

Being a physician is not about being the smartest person in the room, it's about being diligent and accountable. You don't need to have an IQ like Einstein, but you do need to pay attention to the details, cross your T's and dot your I's, and make sure that every culture is checked and every box is ticked. And if you ever get stuck, don't hesitate to refer a patient to a specialist.

I never claimed to be a genius, but I knew that doing the right things was paramount. Being conscientious and responsible is what separates a good physician from a great one. At the end of the day, the most important thing is the health and well-being of your patients. #PhysicianResponsibility #AttentionToDetail #PatientCare
