In this latest episode of Surgeons Lives, Steve Stain recalls his journey from infancy in San Antonio, Texas, to growing up near Fresno in California and entering College and Medical School.
He certainly started with the basics, draining pus for his boss in a drug abuse practice. He describes being supported by some outstanding mentors in his early residency and guided into a career in Academic Surgery that proved extremely successful.
Faculty jobs in California and Tennessee led him to be recruited as Chair of Surgery in Albany, New York, and for more than a decade it was a marriage made in heaven. However, times change, and when leadership vision shifted it was time to move on to his next adventure.
The last few years has seen him, become Chair of Surgery at the Lahey Clinic in Massachusetts, where he describes himself as in many respect, a middle ranking manager! However, we all know that that's understating his contributions to Surgery, and to supporting his colleagues.
His story of being supported by multiple mentors in the early stages of his career is important because it's informed the way he supports young surgeons in his career as a surgical leader.
