SHOW NOTES
Dr. Patrone recounts his entry into the European IR speaking circuit. Through networking, he continues to meet speakers, learn from their experiences, and gain effective communication and presentation skills. He speaks about normalizing the feeling of imposter syndrome, especially when being invited to speak among IR founders and luminaries. He emphasizes personal growth and identifying where your passion and talent overlaps with lecture content.
Dr. Patrone highlights the fact that the field of IR revolves around three different aspects: First, the pioneering phase to innovate new procedures, then the research/evidence phase to demonstrate reproducible results, and finally, the education phase to disseminate knowledge and inspire new generations of IRs. It is common for IRs to feel overwhelmed when trying to commit to all of these fields. Instead of trying to master all aspects of the job, Dr. Patrone recommends that clinicians find different angles of their jobs and hone in the aspects that make them enthusiastic to come to work. Personally, he prioritizes clinical care and teaching. We discuss how time is the ultimate luxury, and how to avoid over-commitment and burnout. We also consider societal gender roles and talk about unjust extra pressures faced by female physicians.
Then, we look at some key differences between a physician career in the US, versus one in Europe. Dr. Patrone comments on the pay gap, training pathway, and overall philosophy of the Italian and British healthcare systems.
Finally, we discuss benefits and misuses of social media within the medical community. Dr. Patrone emphasizes that social media should be used as a tool to teach and inspire, rather than a platform to criticize individuals or specialties. Regarding case-based posts and feedback, he highlights the point that every clinician could have a different but valid approach to each case, based on the practice setting and operator skill. He also encourages other posters to talk about case complications, which can provide enormous educational value for learners.
