Synopsis
"Neither cockiness nor complacency have a place in surgery. Both are lethal."
In Life on the Cutting Edge, Dr. Maxwell delivers a compelling sequel to his successful first book, Life in the Pits, about his surgical training in Detroit. Here, he offers an insightful view into what it is like to practice as a general, vascular, and minimally invasive surgeon in a progressive Midwest community hospital, emphasizing the required delicate balance between confidence and cockiness. He shares both the humorous and poignant personal experiences that reveal the complexities and emotional challenges of surgical care and guides us through the "off-limits" operating room doors, allowing us a glimpse into the inner workings of his surgical world.
Dr. Maxwell Completed his medical school at McGill University in Montreal and his surgical training at Wayne State University, the Detroit Medical Center, and affiliated hospitals.
