If A Surgeon Can Write A Book Or Two, You Can Too
Generally If I had only one word, I’d personally use “pinball” to explain my transition from academic surgery being an Associate Professor at Dartmouth to what I do now, combining locum tenens general surgery with being a thought leader in physician engagement and optimizing physician-hospital collaboration. Yet, writing appears to be more common thread at my iterative life journey. I learned that the text “author” and “authority” possess a common root, auctor, (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/authority) meaning writer, progenitor, accepted cause of information, power, and mastery.
