After the overwhelming response we had to the infographic we recently put out (I placed it at the bottom of this post as well in case some missed it), we decided to take it another step further and make a video showing how antiquated the current medical records system is. From the numerous emails we received, we knew once it was displayed out for everyone, the infographic would make people wonder why we are still in the dark ages when it comes to sharing medical information with doctors. Please pass this video along if you find it enlightening!

Needless to say, this editorial has been very controversial in the medical community.

Most people are probably unaware that the average surgeon, especially those who perform the more routine procedures such as appendectomies, works very long hours.

This is especially true of the “Residents” in a hospital & doctors who are on duty during their first three years of post-graduate medical training.
