Dr. Liz O'Riordan is a breast cancer surgeon who has battled against social, physical and mental challenges to practice at the top of her field. Under the Knife charts Liz's incredible highs: performing like a couture dressmaker as she molded and reshaped women's breasts, while saving their lives; to the heart-breaking lows of telling ten women a day that they had cancer. But this memoir is more than just an eye-opening look at the realities of training to be a female surgeon in a man's world

Most people can picture the liver, roughly where it sits, and they might even know it has something to do with alcohol. Beyond that, the organ is strangely overlooked. The heart gets all the drama. The lungs get the imagery of breath and life. The brain receives reverence. The kidneys get their quiet respect once someone has been told their numbers are off. The liver, by contrast, tends to be treated like a background worker, a kind of internal utility that simply does its job until it doesn't.

Forty years of research has shown that patients who are psychologically prepared for surgery have vastly improved outcomes. It has all been shown that self-hypnosis, when used in addition to anesthesia, can decrease anxiety and pain and hasten healing. Hypnotically prepared patients are shown to have shorter hospital stays, less post-operative pain and nausea, need fewer pain medications, and suffer less anxiety and blood loss than patients who receive routine care.
