Are general surgeons all grumpy? My boyfriend is a surgeon, but he has a bad temper. I don't know if he doesn't like me or is he stressed.
I'm a new general surgeon. It should be said that most doctors rarely have the same temper as ordinary people, because doctors have great work intensity and pressure. In addition to completing their duties, they spend a lot of energy communicating with patients and their families every day. Most patients and their families have a good attitude, but occasionally they encounter one or two troubles (communication problems caused by various reasons, including misunderstandings), and it is possible to be scolded or even beaten. Can the mood be good? The general surgeon has a heavier workload, and he has to undergo surgery almost every day except the routine internal medicine work, often in the morning and afternoon, leaving him less time for chores and communication, so relatively speaking, his work intensity and pressure are greater. Therefore, doctors in general surgery work at a faster pace, and their nerves are tense. Only those who study medicine experience this. I suggest you listen to his complaints, get to know him better and understand him better. Of course, it is very wrong if he loses his temper with you because of his work. I am also very tired and busy, but I can be kind to my family. I hope you have a good life! Have a good communication!
