Jill Feldman: Thank you Mara Antonoff for truly being patient-centered

Jill Feldman shared a post by Jonathan Spicer, Associate Professor of Surgery at McGill University, on X/Twitter:

“YES! There are challenges of operating after induction surgery, but ‘if it’s best for the patient, we should become better surgeons’ Thank you Mara Antonoff for truly being patient-centered and for your true north being, what’s best for the patient.”

Quoting Jonathan Spicer’s post:

Mara Antonoff lighting up the room with the challenges of operating after induction but she argues if that’s the best for the patient, we should become better surgeons and get it done for our patients!”
