a true renaissance type dude? (NYT link)→[More:]

bugmenot link for those without NYT logins.

man i'd love to have this guy for a surgeon if i were to require that sort of thing - i mean he's got stellar taste in music and seems wicked intelligent too.

sadly, i bet there are a bunch of people who'll get all fixated on his 'unprofessionalism' with the bit about playing hangman on the patient's surgical drapes whilst awaiting test results... i can just see the snark and hyperbole flying now 'O NOEZ HE DID WHAT??!!11'

personally i think this cat sounds like what this country needs more of in the healthcare biz.

I love people like this, who do many things and are interested by many things. It's amazing what's possible within one lifetime, given the necessary supports.

Dr. Gawande is 41, and it might be said that that’s a little old for the Killers.

Jeez, I'm sunk. Back to playing 5 minutes to kill myself.
