Mary Hawn talks surgery, Stanford, long distance relationships and couples matching.

Mary Hawn is the Chair of Surgery at Stanford and a highly successful academic general surgeon. For her, life started on the shores of Lake Michigan but after medical school she spent time in Oregon doing a fellowship before joining the UAB faculty in Birmingham. She spent 14 years there rising to become Division of General Surgery. Along the way she married Eben Rosenthal, a high flying academic Head and Neck surgeon and they raised two children. The next move for them both was moving to Stanford where she became Chair and Eben was working as a cancer surgeon and researcher. Not quite 3 years ago Eben took a leadership role at Vanderbilt so clearly, Mary's views on managing that lifestyle are very interesting to hear. Indeed, she has much to say about several aspects of modern surgery and society in general Don't forget to like, subscribe and comment please - and if you prefer to just watch instead then we can be found on YouTube of course - #SurgeonsLives channel. #lifestyle #couplesmatching #worklifebalance #internettrolls #academicsurgery #surgery https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/mary-hawn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Hawn https://x.com/maryhawn?lang=en
