We're Not the Enemy:
What Your Surgeons Wish
You Knew About Us
Surgeons aren't always the easiest
people to work with, but they don't have
to be the hardest, either. Facilities run
more smoothly when you understand
how surgeons think, what they want
most from you and your staff, and how
to improve communication. Gerard M.
Honoré, PhD, MD, will take you on a tour
of the surgeon's mind and help you
unravel the mysteries. Register at
orexcellence.com to see Dr. Honoré,
surgeon, author and medical director at
Fertility Specialists of San Antonio.
