MORE SURGEONS OF THE DAMNED

"Surgery shares materials with weaving and with sculpting, but it also shares materials with wounding and with living. Transsexuality shares surgeries with celebrity. For her I am half material, half muse; for me she is demiurge, despot, and savior."

On November 29th 1599 The Royal Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons was granted its charter by King James VI.

If you remember a previous anniversary when the Barber Surgeons of Edinburgh was given Royal approval in 1505, Barbers were so skilled with their razors they often carried out medical operations on their customers. The charter in 1599 took the barbers out of the equation.

The charter was granted to Peter Lowe, Surgeon, Robert Hamilton, Physician and William Spang, Apothecary. The charter empowered them, their heirs and successors to establish a body to examine all professing the art of surgery in Glasgow and South West Scotland. Uniquely for the time, the charter, as well as creating a body which surgeons could join, also allowed physicians to be members.

The first recorded meeting of the nascent College was held on 3 June 1602 in Glasgow at Blackfriars Kirk. By the end of the 17th century, the Faculty had obtained its first building, the Trongate in Glasgow. In 1791 it moved premises to St Enoch′s Square and then finally in 1862 acquired the magnificent historical building at 242 St Vincent Street, where it is located today.

In December 1909, the Faculty was granted the honorific "Royal" becoming the Royal Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. With the goodwill of Glasgow University and other individuals active in postgraduate medical education, the Faculty established itself as a postgraduate institution, setting standards in postgraduate medical and dental education, and practice.

The Royal Faculty became the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow in 1962.

Today, they are the only multidisciplinary College in the British Isles with a growing membership of over 10,000 physicians, surgeons, dental professionals, specialists in travel medicine and podiatric medicine.

YOU ARE IN GOOD HANDS IF YOUR SURGEON WAS A GAMER

ODDLY ENOUGH, SURGEONS THAT GREW UP PLAYING VIDEO GAMES MORE THAN THREE HOURS PER WEEK MAKE 37% FEWER ERRORS! NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY ALSO HAD A 42% FASTER COMPLETION RATE WHEN IT COMES TO PERFORMING LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY, AS WELL AS SUTURING.

Awright Let’s Cut ‘em Open “Tummy Trouble” (1989)

[topshelf2112-blog]

[my-little-fandoms]

In todays disabled brutal honesty

Had a surgeon tell me to cut every single thing that helps me manage my pain because they’re “not the healthiest”. So I came home and immediately did all those things.

Heatpacks? Nope gotta use my tens machine that doesn’t work

Pain killers? Nope gotta use my tens machine and deep breathing

Sleep? Nope gotta do 15 mins of yoga every single day because the reason I hurt so much is because my body and mind are tense.

And by do those things I mean I ignored the stupid opinion of a stupid dr who isn’t educated on chronic pain. Because yeah they may not be healthiest? But lying in bed all day, not moving and being hospitalised two days later is much less healthier.

Professionalism

Medical personnel: It's okay to hate your EMR. We know, we know, the EMR you use is the worst EMR in the history of EMRs, and That EMR has Ruined Medical Practice as We Know It.

Reign it in when you're in front of a patient. You kill confidence in your skill when you do that and frighten them.

On November 29th 1599 The Royal Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons was  granted its charter by King James VI.

If you remember a previous anniversary when the Barber Surgeons of Edinburgh was given Royal approval in 1505, Barbers were so skilled with their razors they often carried out medical operations on their customers. The charter in 1599 took the barbers out of the equation. The man behind this was Peter Lowe, as seen in the first pic.

Lowe, born in Errol had travelled the continent and practised as a surgeon to the Spanish Regiment in the service of Philip II of Spain, and served the King of France as a surgeon before returning to Glasgow.

He was shocked at the state of surgery here and decided that barbers should stick to cutting hair and not other parts of the body. His plea to James VI for a charter to found the Faculty of His plea to James VI for a charter to found the Faculty of Chirurgerie was granted. Chirurgerie is an old Scots word for surgery google the word and the majority of the results mention Lowe, The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow is his Living Memorial.
