## Caption

They say you do need a little bit of an ego to be a surgeon in the first place, but admittedly some of us probably go a little bit overboard. 

🏡 Luckily I have family members (including a wife and toddler) who keep me pretty humble, and I'm sure many others do as well. 

🙏 Many thanks to the OR team (and our significant others) who tolerate our “surgeon personalities” on a regular basis.  I know it can't be easy at times!
