The Careful Surgeon

Lesson on care, compassion, communication and leading through crisis from an extraordinary surgeon on the NHS frontline. How we, as individuals - and as a society - respond to crisis says a lot about us. How resilient are we? Who do we obey and who do we believe? With The Careful Surgeon, Dr Shehan Hettiarchy - London's Major Trauma Director - gives us an insight on how to cope with and be our best selves during crisis. Drawing on his experiences leading crisis response teams for some of London's biggest tragedies, as well as his active service with the Parachute Regiment, Dr Hettiarchy teaches us how to remain positive and look forward beyond the hardest moments that we face. From real, honest patient stories to inspiring snapshots of the true camaraderie of our NHS workforce, Dr Hettiarchy, for the first time, teaches us how to remain calm and stay mentally strong in those difficult moments when crisis hits.
