She gives us a peek behind the scenes of a day in her high-pressure world — including the most challenging procedures she faces and how she uses creativity to excel at what she does. She also discusses her pet peeves and which procedures are most difficult for her to perform.
This episode is full of important information every parent should know — and offers a window into a world where detail is everything and nothing is ever routine.
