Big 5 Lessons from A Surgeons Life By Dr. Sanjiv Haribhakti

Life is nothing but an opportunity to grow, to explore the wider horizons; and an opportunity to learn and share our learning with others. It is often said; “Learn from the mistakes of others as we don’t have time to make them all.” With this thought in mind, Dr Sanjiv Haribhakti, a well-known GI surgeon practising in Ahmedabad, India, embarked on this journey of sharing challenges and experiences of his life in the form of Big 5 Lessons. This book is especially for the younger surgeons who, in his opinion, are more adept at learning, and learning quickly. Dr. Haribhakti wants the surgeons to enjoy the unfolding of these lessons from professional and personal life, as they experience the nuances of life, and get a different perspective on common issues of day-to-day life. These life lessons are not taught in either medical school or higher medical education.
