Dr. Downing Part 2

Today we talk all things anesthesia with the brilliant and talented Michelle Downing, MD, Cardiothoracic Anesthesiologist and bestie to Dr. Ginny and Dr. Lora. We round out the tori trifecta (coined it!), talk about what general anesthesia does and doesn't do and why you feel so groggy afterward. We also get into lighter sedation methods, why Dr. Michelle totally respects them, and what to ask your healthcare provider if you are getting this type of anesthesia. Also, what is propofol? Dr. Michelle knows! Listen in to find out!

First we talk logistics of car repair, then address a very common issue Dr. Ginny has been seeing lately in her practice (hint: it relates to sexy time *or lack thereof). Then, of course we must discuss our thoughts on this year's Oscars.

We're back baby! The doctor moms get together (socially distanced) to hash through life and work changes during the quarantine, and TELEHEALTH dominates the conversation. They talk about trying to balance patient care, mental health, and home duties, and still manage to get some laughs in.
