The Art of Medicine: 

15/1/2017

Today I heard an interview with an internationally renowned choreographer who at one point talked about observing open heart surgery for research purposes and he mentioned that the surgeon was operating to music, "Bach in fact". That reminded me of a cholecystectomy (key hole surgery) I was privileged to observe when studying a CPD course 'Interprofessional Learning' together with health staff at a University in the south of England, in 2006. The focused atmosphere I am only a little hesitant to call sacred increasingly left me in awe. The young surgeon disappeared quickly down the corridor after the op was completed. It seemed he needed to be alone. This only reinforced the impression.
