Editor’s Note: This is a note I got yesterday regarding following CircuitSurfers.com via email notification (subscription). = Hi Frank , We recently moved our pediatric services to the Childrens of Alabama facility connected to a crosswalk to UAB. I have changed my email address. Please forward your blog to that email. I miss seeing […]
Editor’s Note: This was a significant comment made when I first started ‘Surfers. = Teutonic, I don’t know how you guys can do what you do. When I heard some of the stories told by the wife of my bypass friend, of how she frequented the hospital every day and ranted and raved and assaulted […]
Click Image above to go directly to Mr. Ali’s FB page 🙂 Editor’s Note: Most places I have worked, it was with one perfusionist per case- unless the degree of difficulty implied the need for more assistance. At one point in my career we did have a perfusion assistant on each case. At another point, […]
Editor’s Note: This was a response I wanted to share with all of us. It’s a BIG thank you for the passion and dedication we all give to the profession. From one-of-us that is from outside-of-us that views-another-side-of-us… Janet Rabin. A Constant spark of encouragement and kind words. Thank you. = From Janet Rabin: I […]
Editor’s Note: This was an elegant response I received in the comments section of a recent post… “Redneck or Bleeding Liberal?” The author is Patrizio Sartini, I imagine to be an Italian perfusionist based on the name- but not quite certain of that. I thought it raised many thoughts well worth sharing. = From Mr. […]
“Bring It ! “ Editor’s Note: I got this letter today, and found it pretty funny. No harm and no foul either way i answer… I enjoyed the letter and was humbled that anyone would really care enough to take the time to wonder 🙂 = From Mr. Martin: (Australia) Hi Frank I am about […]

Hi, Sorry to email you out of the blues. I like your blog very much. It is very informative and gives me a better insight into the live and work of a Perfusionist. I hope someday I can contribute as a Perfusionist too. I am currently doing a BSc in Biological Sciences and hoping to […]
A while ago I got an email from a colleague across the pond (the one leading down to the southern hemisphere), a Mr. Martin Gill. If you have followed Circuit Surfers, you will remember Martin as the Australian pediatric perfusionist that did an extraordinary series of posts in the form of a “Live Blog” of […]
= From Greta: Hey Frank How goes it? Hope all is well in TEXAS!!! A hospital administrator came to my office the other day and wanted to know if the Perfusion society or organization has anything in their by-laws or standard of care practices, about how often a IABP should be managed on the Nursing floor i.e. (daily checks). I know […]
= From Jeff: Mr. Aprile, My name is Jeff and I have been following Circuit Surfers for a few weeks now after being introduced to perfusion careers by a professor of mine. Since then, I have been enthralled by the field and am seriously considering the possibility of a perfusion career over general medicine. Currently, […]

Furthermore, I realized that u were located in Texas. I recently relocated to OKC and am blindly making my way in the […]
