Dr. Amanda Logue, Chief Medical Officer for Ochsner Lafayette General, joined Discover Lafayette to discuss Ochsner's new General Surgery Residency Program. Accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), the surgical residency program received nearly 600 applications for three coveted spots. The 5-year surgery program is expected to grow, training a new class of three residents per academic year, wth the inaugural class beginning July 1, 2024. Ochsner is also pursuing accreditation of Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, and Transitional Year Programs. On April 16, 2024, Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, celebrated the launch of its new General Surgery Residency Program, which will begin July 1, 2024. Located inside the new, recently constructed tower at Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the completed Graduate Medical Education space will be 17,115 square feet. Phase 1 includes eight resident sleep rooms, a resident lounge, classrooms, rounding rooms and lactation rooms. Phase 2 will house numerous simulation labs and additional classroom space. Ziad Ashkar, MD, will serve as the Designated Institutional Official (DIO), ensuring the program meets the rigorous accreditation standards set by the ACGME. Dr. Dennis Eschete will serve as the Program Director for General Surgery. About 25 surgeons will be rotating, with the core group of teaching physicians being Dr. Willard Mosier, Ochsner Lafayette General's head of trauma, Dr. Jason Breaux, Dr. Michael Horaist and Dr. Racheed “Joe” Ghanami. The new residency program is both a strategic response to the escalating physician shortage and a model for innovative care solutions leading to increased patient access. In a 2024 report, the Association of American Medical Colleges projected that physician demand will grow faster than supply, leading to a projected total shortage of up to 86,000 physicians by 2036. Moreover, Louisiana is projected to rank third nationally for a shortage of physicians by 2030, according to a Human Resources for Health analysis. Speaking of the physician shortage being experience here and nationwide, Dr. Amanda Logue shared that 140,000 patients came through Ochsner University Clinics in 2023. "It's a huge volume, there's a huge need for more physicians." Ochsner Lafayette General's new surgery residency program doesn't replace its ongoing partnership with LSU School of Medicine's at University Hospital & Cinics; it complements it. Dr. Logue stated, "The reality is there's a critical need for more physicians, which is why we started our own program in addition to the existing one. This program also signifies our deep commitment to advancing medical education and addressing the dire need for surgeons in our healthcare system." Importantly, data shows that most physicians practice within 70 miles of where they trained, so Ochsner hopes that Lafayette will be a compelling place for their residents to start their medical careers. The goal of the program is not only to provide top-tier educational opportunities, such as training at the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, but also to inspire innovation and compassion among the residents. The residents will learn to navigate the complexities of healthcare delivery with a patient-first approach, having the opportunity to take part in cutting-edge research and be at the forefront of developing new surgical techniques. Ochsner Health is Louisiana's top healthcare educator of physicians. Annually Ochsner and its partners educate thousands of healthcare professionals. It currently offers 33 Acreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education programs, training over 330 residents and fellows each year. Dr. Logue is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Clinical Informatics, having completed her undergraduate training at LSU in microbiology,

The process of entering medical school and training to be a general surgery resident can be intricate and challenging, requiring significant dedication and passion for the field. Mentorship plays a crucial role in the medical field, guiding young professionals in their journey and helping them navigate challenges and make strategic decisions. Specialty and subspecialty medical education within the military is structured and organized, offering a clear path for those interested in specific areas of medicine. A research year can provide invaluable experience and insights, especially when pursuing a specific specialty such as vascular surgery. The structure and working of surgery teams are crucial for effective patient care, with each level carrying specific responsibilities. Balancing responsibilities and maintaining relationships is essential in a demanding field like medicine. Becoming a board-certified general surgeon involves various steps, including mentorship, research, and academic focus. Organization and compartmentalization of stressors are crucial for team leaders in medical fields, helping to set an example for the team and ensure ideal patient care.

In a continuing series focused on vascular surgery, host Rick Greene, MD, FACS, talks to vascular surgeon Marie L. Crandall MD, MPH, FACS, about venous thromboembolism. Dr. Crandall is Professor and Associate Chair, Research; Chief, Division of Acute Care Surgery; Program Director, General Surgery Residency, Department of Surgery, University of Florida Jacksonville. *Addendum from Dr. Crandall: “The timing of VTE prophylaxis after neurosurgical intervention for TBI can be challenging.  However, this JAMA Surg retrospective cohort study demonstrated that prophylaxis before 72hrs was associated with greater risk of reintervention and mortality and after 72 hours was associated with greater risk of VTE but not mortality.  This suggests that perhaps 3 days would be safest balance for most patients after neurosurgical intervention for TBI.”  Learn more about Selected Readings in General Surgery, an American College of Surgeons publication that highlights highly relevant and practice-changing information from the world's most prominent medical journals.  #SurgicalReadings

If you are dealing with obesity, you might not know it but your body still has a chance to get rid of your excess weight as soon as possible. Obesity is heavily associated with other comorbidities, and the longer you have it, the harder it gets to treat. This is the reason why doctors suggest weight loss surgery as an option for patients with comorbid conditions and have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher, or have a BMI between 35 and 40.Bariatric surgery is one of the safest weight loss surgeries that has a record of 250,000 procedures performed each year. It helps patients increase their lifespan from the possible life-threatening weight-related health problems by making changes to their digestive system to help them reduce weight.In today's episode, we've invited Dr. Shusmita Ahmed, Associate Program Director for the General Surgery Residency program at UC Davis Medical Center who obtained her Bariatric Surgery fellowship at the same hospital. She has generously shared her knowledge about bariatric surgery and its benefits, the risks it poses, how patients are prepared for the surgery, and what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. She also discussed lifelong lifestyle changes necessary to maintain weight loss, which is essential to preserve the quality of life.Medical practitioners are gifted at educating patients about their chronic conditions and give options on how these can be treated. This episode is worth your time and undivided attention as it will enlighten you about life-saving procedures and lifestyle changes related to obesity.Memorable Quotes:There's a lot of stigmas associated with obesity and we don't want patients to not get treated because they feel stigmatized and that they feel like they're a failure. If they haven't been able to achieve weight loss, that's not the case at all. - Dr. Shusmita AhmedAs primary care, we should spend a lot more time with patients in terms of not only lifestyle modifications but also educate the patients in terms of their options. And I think we fall short in doing that. - D. Jette GabiolaAbout the Guests:Dr. Shusmita Ahmed finished General Surgery at Stanford University and obtained a Bariatric Surgery Fellowship at UC Davis Medical Center. She is currently the Associate Program Director for the General Surgery Residency program at UC Davis Medical CenterAbout the Host:Dr. Jette Gabiola is a Clinical Professor of Medicine at Stanford University and the President & CEO of ABCs for Global Health.
