Show notes:

Today we're thrilled to sit down with a vastly experienced and widely respected leader in the field: Dr. Deepak Krishnan. He is the Chair and Division Director of Oral Maxillofacial Surgery at the University of Cincinnati and the Chairman of their Cincinnati OMS Program (the oldest residency program in the country). In this episode, we do a deep dive into his role at the IAOMS and their innovative newsletter, before delving into the program itself. Dr. Krishnan shares how the focus around clinical material and experience makes this a residency, not a fellowship, and why being the program's director is the best job in the world! You'll also hear about their weekly schedule, team make up, and what exciting things the practice is focusing on at the moment. Tune in to discover Dr. Krishnan's philosophy on the importance of giving back, hear why he thinks academic surgery has changed (and is changing) for the better, and learn what he looks for in a residency hire! From home brewing and Wes Anderson movies to newsletter highlights of truly revolutionary technology on the verge of getting FDA approved, join us for another insightful conversation on Everyday Oral Surgery.
