A natural overachiever, Collins's success, in college and medical school led to a surgical residency at one of the most respected medical centers in the world, the famed Mayo Clinic. But compared to his fellow residents Collins feels inadequate and unprepared. All too soon, the euphoria of beginning his career as an orthopedic resident gives way to the feeling he is a counterfeit, an imposter who has infiltrated a society of brilliant surgeons.This story of Collins's four-year surgical residency traces his rise from an eager but clueless first-year resident to accomplished Chief Resident in his final year. With unparalleled humor, he recounts the disparity between people's perceptions of a doctor's glamorous life and the real thing: a succession of run down cars that are towed to the junk yard, long weekends moonlighting at rural hospitals, a family that grows larger every year, and a laughable income. 517 $aHot Lights, Cold Steel 676 $a617.4/7/092 B 700 $aCollins$b Michael J.$058770 702 $aPruden$b John$4nrt 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910164197703321 996 $aHot Lights, Cold Steel : Life, Death and Sleepless Nights in a Surgeon's First Years$93599824 997 $aUNINA
