Dr. Gerry Fried on technology, leadership, travel, innovation - and much, much more
Dr. Gerry Fried is the former Chair of the Department of Surgery at McGill University in Montreal and is now leading the Department's initiatives in the technology and innovation space as well as surgical simulation.
In this very wide ranging interview, he touches on a whole gamut of topics ranging from the benefits of travel in terms of surgical education, having crucial conversations with badly behaved or failing colleagues, the development of innovation under pressure and the inevitable intrusion of technology into the daily life of surgeons and their patients. He recognizes that while technology can be incredibly beneficial, there are also downsides to some recent developments.
This is a man who has been there and done most of it and there's very little he hasn't seen throughout a long and distinguish career. At 75 years of age, he is thoroughly enjoying his work and finds great excitement in new initiatives.
He continues to travel the world widely seeking out extraordinary culinary experiences.
If you prefer to watch rather than listen, then don't forget that this full interview is available on the @Surgeonslives channel on @Youtube.
