I try to get a good night’s sleep every night. I aim for getting seven to eight hours per night. That number goes down when I’m on call. Surgeons rotate call coverage overnight, so there is always a pediatric surgeon on campus at all times. During those nights, I’m up and I’m busy. Feeling tired doesn’t really affect my ability to operate. We are well-trained to operate under all conditions. Surgeons feel good even if they’re a little tired. Plus, being in the operating room is exciting and enjoyable for surgeons so we are wide awake and ready to go during every operation.
