- 00:09Austin. I'm a third year
- 00:11fellow and I'm Norin Ansari.
- 00:13I'm a first year fellow and we
- 00:15have the joy and privilege of
- 00:18being your virtual electronic tour
- 00:20guides through our hospital today.
- 00:23We're very excited to show you the
- 00:26parts of the program that we love most,
- 00:30including the people that
- 00:32education the clinical space.
- 00:34And I might deviate a little bit and
- 00:36show you some of my personal favourites.
- 00:39Access to soda,
- 00:40access to caffeine lounge chairs, couches,
- 00:42and where the ping pong table is.
- 00:46Come take a walk with us.
- 00:47We'll have some fun.
- 00:49As you come
- 00:50out of the Fellows Room,
- 00:52you actually immediately enter what I like
- 00:54to refer to as the hallway of legends,
- 00:57which really remarkable about Yale
- 00:58universities have unbelievable
- 00:59unprecedented access to faculty,
- 01:01and I think the proximity to their
- 01:03offices really highlights this.
- 01:04So as we walked down the
- 01:06hallway were going to pass.
- 01:08First, doctor berenice is office whose
- 01:09kind of incharge of RENT division to
- 01:12our leftist Pamela Kuhn's office and
- 01:14she's in charge of Right GI Division.
- 01:16The next door on your right
- 01:18is actually Roy Herbs,
- 01:19who's the chair of oncology.
- 01:21And then to our left we're going
- 01:23to pass Mario Shoals Office.
- 01:24Who is the president of the
- 01:26immunotherapy for Cancer Society?
- 01:27And then as we continue to go down,
- 01:30we're going to pass the phase
- 01:32one group doctor Lou Russo,
- 01:33Doctor Ader on our left.
- 01:35His doctor Lacey are our former program
- 01:37director who's a medical education phenom,
- 01:39phenom.
- 01:39And then last but not least,
- 01:41we passed Harriet Cougars Office who
- 01:42is also part of the Melanoma division.
- 01:45Next,
- 01:45we're going to
- 01:46go from the Fellows room over to the main
- 01:48hospital and the cancer hospital. Kind of a
- 01:51lot. Yeah.
- 02:21Now that we've shown you the Fellows
- 02:24room passed through the hallway
- 02:26of legends across the bridge,
- 02:28we first actually answered the main hospital,
- 02:31and you'll notice this beautiful atrium,
- 02:33plenty of natural sunlight
- 02:35and a beautiful fountain.
- 02:36And oh, hello Doreen. Nice to see you.
- 02:39What a coincidence.
- 02:42Excellent spot for eating lunch for
- 02:44taking a 15 minute break for catching
- 02:46your breath and in the middle of
- 02:49winter catching up on your vitamin
- 02:51D at Austin special fruit partali.
- 02:53I get really excited about
- 02:54this part of the virtual tour.
- 02:56If you look down the sidewalk,
- 02:58you're going to see probably
- 03:0010 to 15 different food carts.
- 03:02We have Mexican with Japanese.
- 03:04We have Chinese, we have Thai.
- 03:06We have group.
- 03:07The list really goes on Anon.
- 03:09Phenomenal spot.
- 03:09Not overly priced.
- 03:10Great quantity,
- 03:11break quality over my shoulder.
- 03:13You see doctor poodles,
- 03:14his favorite building, the Sterling
- 03:16Hall of Medicine Medical Library.
- 03:18Great spot to go and get work done.
- 03:21Quiet space, really good when
- 03:22you're on your research blocks.
- 03:24Seems a little quiet here today.
- 03:26It's actually 2:00 o'clock in the pandemics,
- 03:29hurt the hype around food carts,
- 03:31a little bit.
- 03:32Highly recommended.
- 03:33Great spot.
- 03:33Gotta check it
- 03:34out. We're standing
- 03:36outside of Milo Cancer Hospital.
- 03:38We wanted to show you what the
- 03:41hospital looks like in here.
- 03:43We have our clinic spaces for both
- 03:46medical oncology and Hematology.
- 03:48We also have our inpatient
- 03:50words for oncology hematology
- 03:52within the same building.
- 03:54We have radiation oncology.
- 03:56Surgical oncology.
- 03:57Basically, anything that you
- 03:58might need in the hospital.
- 04:02So.
- 04:14Now we're inside smilow cancer hospital.
- 04:18Look at this beautiful clinic space.
- 04:26Hi Matt. Oh friends. Hello welcome. This
- 04:30is our standard clinical space.
- 04:33Pretty standard room.
- 04:34You have your otoscope,
- 04:35your ophthalmoscope patient share
- 04:37and then your obligatory computer.
- 04:38If you want to access the medical
- 04:41record while you talk with patients.
- 04:43What I think is unique is if
- 04:45we go through this door will
- 04:47get a little bit better flavor.
- 04:49How the clinic is set up for practitioners?
- 04:52Let's take a walk together.
- 04:55Doctor Goldberg. Hello,
- 04:57what a coincidence. Doctor
- 04:59Goldberg, one of our social program directors
- 05:04and thoracic oncology extraordinary.
- 05:07And this is a little flavor
- 05:09of how this is situated.
- 05:11Often in this space there's an attending a
- 05:13fellow nurse practitioner, pizan, nurses,
- 05:15and if you look all these closed doors
- 05:18are actually where the patients around.
- 05:21So the patients come in the door you
- 05:23walk through and then the providers
- 05:25coming through the other door and
- 05:27it's kind of like a self autonomous
- 05:29unit and it works really well and
- 05:31everybody gets along the right.
- 05:33So it's really markable
- 05:34about these clinic space.
- 05:35It actually allows for really well
- 05:38coordinated multidisciplinary care.
- 05:39So often this is the lung cancer
- 05:41clinic and you would have a Nurse
- 05:43Practitioner Apiai the nurses.
- 05:44The Fellow in detecting and what's
- 05:46really cool is if you walk 10 feet
- 05:49that way you might have G you.
- 05:51You might have palliative care.
- 05:53And it fosters this great multi discipline
- 05:55of environments and collegiality
- 05:56among subspecialties that, I think,
- 05:58is really unique to Yale University,
- 06:00that you don't get it on the
- 06:03programs. This is the healing garden which
- 06:05is on the 7th floor of the cancer hospital,
- 06:08is a nice quiet space that we often see
- 06:11patients come up to or quiet moment.
- 06:13But I also like to spend lunch here.
- 06:17Pick a bench. Get some vitamin D.
- 06:19Do some thinking. Let's take a walk.
- 06:49Going to the world now inside voice.
- 07:02So we're on the words of
- 07:04Smilow Cancer Hospital.
- 07:05This is the 12th floor where the
- 07:08medical oncology wards are one.
- 07:09Floor down will be the hematology words.
- 07:12It's nice, bright light.
- 07:13Every room is a single patient room.
- 07:15We have the best nurses around an
- 07:17it's a great environment to work
- 07:20it. It's really you need to fellowship
- 07:22program and it's actually really invaluable
- 07:24resource for both us is Fellows and patience
- 07:27is what we call the extended care clinic.
- 07:30It's actually an urgent care solely
- 07:32dedicated to either hematology
- 07:33or oncology dedicated patients.
- 07:35And when you're on call and it's 8:00
- 07:37o'clock at night to really great option,
- 07:39instead of sending potentially immuno
- 07:41suppressed patients to the emergency room.
- 07:42And I think it's something very special,
- 07:44very unique and very very very
- 07:46much appreciated by patients.
- 07:47So this is the extended care clinic.
- 07:49We can't show it all to you
- 07:51because of HIPAA npi.
- 07:53Hi, but know that it's here.
- 07:54It's A wonderful resource.
- 07:55And as a fellow
- 07:57it's your saving Grace.
- 07:58Some of us have children.
- 07:59I had a kid coming into Fellowship.
- 08:01My second daughter was
- 08:02born first year fellow.
- 08:04My wife's expecting 1/3.
- 08:05Child care can be huge and I just
- 08:07wanted to show you that this is
- 08:09actually a dedicated childcare
- 08:10facility day care facility for Fellows
- 08:12and hospital staff and we're about
- 08:14200 yards from the Fellows room and
- 08:16about 200 yards from the hospital.
- 08:18There's actually multiple of these
- 08:19scattered throughout the campus
- 08:21and a couple of my Co fails.
- 08:22Kids actually go here, and it's
- 08:24pretty remarkable 'cause you
- 08:25can walk by and see all the
- 08:27kids running outside in plain.
- 08:29So for those that do have families
- 08:31for those that do have kids in a word
