So I was shadowing an anesthesiologist today and he left me in the room with a CRNA for a few minutes. The CRNA immediately asked me if I was a nurse. When I told him that I was not and I was going to the AA program he proceded to berate the AA profession and told me that I needed to go back to school and do it the right way. For those of you former and current AA students, have you experienced this type of reaction from the CRNA's when you do your clinical rotations? It's going to really suck if I have to deal with that kind of resistance on a daily basis.
