Heartbeat: Teamwork makes dream work

January 14, 2020

Newly appointed Mr Buza, Consultant Ears, Nose and Throat (ENT) Surgeon may only have been with our Trust for a short time but he’s certainly creating a positive buzz wherever he goes.

Theatre Nurse, Karishma Kaur recently had the opportunity to work alongside Mr Buza. She visited the ENT theatre for the first time and together they operated on a patient. She said: “I cannot express how much I enjoyed working alongside Mr Buza. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to learn from him and to be trained in common surgical procedures under his guidance as part of my development.”

It’s not just Karishma that has been touched by Mr Buza’s thoughtfulness and generosity. Colleagues from the wider team credit him with creating ‘a wonderful team spirit’ that helps to integrate the ‘younger generation’ into the team. Recently, Mr Buza invited Karishma to Birmingham Treatment Centre. Little did she know that he had arranged a party complete with tea, cakes and a balloon to welcome her to the department.

Laurel Woodstock, Clinical Supervisor added: “We cannot express how much we appreciate Mr Buza’s kind gestures. He has made such a big impact on the team.

We’re all looking forward to working with him more closely.”

Mr Buza said “I’m passionate about supporting and motivating young colleagues. I have always tried to lead by example especially in this area. I look forward to working with everyone. My goal is to help the younger members of the team grow into their roles and I will support them as best as I can to achieve their ambitions.”
