Expectations are key for success in surgery.

What does this mean?

🥅 It is important that the patient thinks that the surgeon can achieve their expectations or goals.

👩🏻‍⚕️ And in turn, the surgeon thinks that they can understand the patient’s goals and they think they can achieve their expectations.

Part of the consultation process involves educating the patient about what realistic expectations are for their surgery. Ultimately, both patient and surgeon must “choose” each other before going ahead with surgery.

A tidsoptimist, otherwise known as a time optimist, is someone who habitually underestimates how long tasks take and overestimates their available time. This leads to consistent lateness.

Rooted in optimism bias, they believe they can fit more into their schedule than is realistic.

A tidsoptimist genuinely believes they have more time than they actually do. They perpetually think, “I will just do one more thing” - they believe they can squeeze in another task before leaving.

I couldn’t find evidence that it’s genetic, however my eldest seems to take after her mother 🤷🏻‍♀️😬.
Thanks for the cute matching hoodies 😜 .

Let us know below if you are or know anyone who is a tidsoptimist.




16/04/2026

In reality, our team all enjoy chatting with our patients. We are a busy clinic and we are always cognisant of keeping to schedule.

However, if we are running behind time, it may be because we are with our patient who is:
- telling us about her husband’s new cancer diagnosis,
- crying about her own cancer diagnosis,
- sharing with us how she went shopping for bathers and bought them straight off the rack,
- showing us photos of the outfit she wore to her son’s wedding after having had surgery,
- letting us know about how her divorce is progressing in court,
- discussing how she is experiencing bullying at work.

We are interested in your lives beyond your surgery.

Surgery: Breast Reduction - “Lollipop Scar”
Before, 6 weeks and 8 months after surgery
Age of patient: 15 - 19
Bra size change: 10G to 12D

The “short scar” or “lollipop scar” technique is associated with a learning curve for surgeons. In my experience, it also requires an understanding from the patient and their trust in the process, as there a is more obvious “settling in” period. This means that the tissues take time to settle and for the residual skin at the lower pole of the breast to retract.

Hospital stay: 1 x overnight
Surgery time: 2.5 hours
Driving: 1 - 2 weeks
Back to work: 2 weeks (work dependent)
Return to exercise: 6 weeks (running 2 - 3 months)

Happy milestone birthday to my high school bestie 🥳👯‍♀️.
Being friends with you helped me during those awkward teenage years. We always knew we had each other - someone we could rely on to have our back, and someone we could always fall back on.

I’m grateful to still call you a friend after all this time, and in spite of us living in difficult continents. Have a wonderful birthday 🎉.

Do you still think we look like our younger selves?

Wishing you all a happy Easter. We will be having a break over this time. It is a good chance for the team to rest and r...
