How they incorporate what they learned in the CHESS Surgical Ethics Fellowship into their daily role

“The lessons I learned in the CHESS fellowship permeate my career on a daily basis.  The tenants of surgical ethics and our vibrant discussions during the course, have changed the way I have conversations with patients and their families when obtaining consent and goals of care discussions.” 


What CHESS session held the biggest impact

“As a trauma surgeon/intensivist and also working to develop better methods for organ procurement/preservation, the lecture on brain death resonates closely with me.”
