From clinic to the OR, storytelling is shaping how you care for patients.

This week on #ENT273, Dr. Gopi Shah sits down with head and neck surgical oncologist and writer Dr. Alessandra Colaianni from UNC to explore #narrativemedicine not as something extra to learn, but as something embedded in every patient interaction.

A great reminder from this week’s BackTable ENT Podcast👇👇

Pediatric ENT surgeon Dr. Gopi Shah recently sat down to talk with Jose Flores, a surgical technologist at Rady Children’s Hospital, about what really keeps an OR running efficiently. From being prepared for any surgical outcome to prioritizing clear communication, Jose sheds light on the critical (and often overlooked) role of the scrub tech.

Behind every smooth surgery is a team member you may not see in the spotlight. But without them, the operation doesn’t run.

In #ENT271 of the BackTable ENT Podcast, Dr. Gopi Shah chats with Jose Flores, a pediatric ENT surgical tech. He brings a thoughtful perspective on what it takes to keep the operating room running smoothly.

From studying surgeries in advance to fully prepping the OR and anticipating the surgeon’s needs, Jose reveals how proactive planning and collaboration help transform surgical chaos into smooth, rewarding experiences.
