Hospital want to film my Operation

Steve Zodiac · 18 Mar 2011 at 16:01

Back in Jan i fell off my mountain bike and dislocated my shoulder, Had an MRI that showed that i had torn my Rotator cuff tendon ! So i need to have Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair surgery.

The hospital contacted me and said they would like to film the operation. They will use the film for training shoulder surgeons.

I said thats ok by me, And i get a FREE DVD of the op LoL.
Would you consent to having your operation filmed ?

Am i doing the right thing?

They've just got more pressure on themselves to do it right!

The only operation I've had was a circumcision. There's no way in hell I would want a free DVD of that.

You can be sure they'll have their best surgeon on the job if they plan to film it

If they weren't filming you may have one of those trainees the video is aimed at!

Youtube it!

You are doing the right thing, I always allow trainee doctors to sit in during conversations and procedures when in the Hospital if asked.

Agreed. Plus in my experience trainee doctors can quite often be attractive young ladies. I have not problem with them poking and prodding me.
