Abstract

If I had to ask you who the most famous surgeon in the world is, you would be perplexed. However, if you have a Netflix membership, you’d undoubtedly say Meredith Grey from Grey’s Anatomy. Despite her portraying a fictional surgeon, her personal growth, adaptability and resilience for 21 seasons is admirable. We can commend her on seamless transitions and willingness to thrive on change from interacting with different generations of surgeons as the years progress. This Grey Method is pivotal for tackling the intergenerational gap encountered in the surgical workforce.
