00:00 You've been here all night?

00:02 I've been working on a case with the new chief of surgery,

00:05 Dr. Han.

00:07 How's that going?

00:08 Not very well.

00:09 He plays music in the operating room.

00:11 Oh, geez. One of those.

00:13 And he says I need to focus on our patient's emotional needs.

00:16 Well, that's a tough assignment for you.

00:19 Mm.

00:21 You ever wish you had, you know,

00:29 friends, co-workers on the spectrum?

00:32 Not usually.

01:08 Um, just do your work.

01:10 Be a good surgeon. Be an excellent surgeon.

01:13 Over time, he'll forget about the autism.

01:15 Why would that happen?

01:16 He'll see that you have the skill, you have dedication.

01:20 I have autism.

01:22 It's part of who I am.
