    Those are often the same people. I work exclusively in the OR, and we occasionally need to pull a doctor from their clinical hours to do an emergency surgery, which means some patient who’s expecting a clinical appointment just got fucked.

    This comes down to staffing issues, but every hospital on the planet is apparently running a skeleton crew right now, so we work with what we got.
