These are my productivity tips, so they work for me. Hopefully, I can spark discussion on how to combine family and medical life. I have a bias towards surgical applications and OSX programs. Obviously, I can better review software if it is something I can use. However, a lot of the hacks and internet tools I review on this blog can be accessed from any platform.
