Residents across West Texas often share a similar story: you follow up, you review paperwork, and the explanation doesn’t line up with what you’re experiencing. Sometimes the mismatch shows up as:
- Surgical or anesthesia documentation that feels incomplete or inconsistent
- Imaging reports that don’t reflect what clinicians told you during recovery
- Follow-up notes that reference automated summaries or system-generated content
- A timeline where decisions appear to have been made too quickly—or without confirming key details
In many cases, the concern isn’t that surgery is “never risky.” It’s that the safety steps that should have caught problems weren’t handled correctly, including steps where automated systems may have influenced documentation, interpretation, or workflow.
