Meet Dr. Raquel Weston

Trauma, critical care, clamshells… and chickens 🐓

By day: trauma, acute care & surgical critical care attending, APD to SCC fellowship
By night: professional cat wrangler, dog mom, and keeper of 13 very opinionated chickens

Favorite operation:
ED thoracotomy / clamshell — because why not?

Training:
🩺 Residency — University of Florida, Jacksonville
🏥 Fellowship — Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU)

Mentors who shaped me:
Dr. Paula Ferrada
Dr. Michael Nussbaum
Dr. Andrew Kerwin

Professional interests:
• Trauma systems & regionalization
• Resident and fellow wellness (burnout is not a badge of honor)
• Surgical education
• Women in surgery

Off-duty interests:
• Baby animals
• Cats, dogs, and chickens
• More animals
• Probably more chickens

I believe great trauma surgeons are built in environments that are high-acuity, high-support, and high-fun.
You’ll work hard here — but you’ll never work alone.

🧠🔬 New ICU Tech Alert!

We’ve added a new piece of advanced technology to our ICU — but we’ll let you take the first guess 👀

📸 Can you tell what this machine is?
💭 What do you think it measures?
🩺 How do you think it helps critically ill patients?

Drop your guesses in the comments 👇
We’ll reveal the answer (and why this matters in surgical critical care) soon.

A successfully conducted hands-on simulation for our Surgical Critical Care Fellowship program, focusing on arrhythmias. Featured here are the SCC fellow, several surgery residents, and the SCC Program Director who provided a wonderful live narration and role play as the patient. An excellent showcase of teamwork in managing real-time challenges and improving critical care skills.
