Episode 78: Dr. Carol-Anne Moulton
Who goes through surgeons’ minds when they encounter something unexpected in the OR? This week's guest is Dr. Carol-Anne Moulton. She is an Associate Professor in General Surgery at the University of Toronto. Early 2010, Dr. Moulton became a Scientist at the University of Toronto Donald R. Wilson Centre for Research in Education. Her research interests include the psycho-sociological considerations of surgical judgment and surgeon error. We have a fascinating conversation about what doctors think when they are in the OR and are not quite sure what to do.
