Trials and Tribulations of MaxFax DCT/SHO/Residency - PDP194

It’s your first night on-call and you are bleeped at 3am - there’s a nasty facial laceration waiting for your urgent attention. You have never sutured the face before…”who you gonna call?” - well sometimes even the Ghostbusters will be more helpful than the on-call trainee! Our good friend Dr Ameer Allybocus joins us again for another episode where he gives us a lowdown of his experience when he was a DCT trainee many years ago. There is a lot to learn in this podcast from Ameer as he dives into the Trials and Tribulations of being an Oral and MaxilloFacial Surgery DCT during the early years of his career. There are laughs and tears in this one, so hold on to your seats for an emotional podcast that will leave you wanting more.
