"Shoulder dystocia is just about the scariest thing I see in my life as a physician. ALSO's HELPERR mnemonic has helped me through some tough situations. Regular review of it keeps me prepared."

"ALSO provided a cognitive framework to focus my obstetrics experience. It has honed my skills, even the ones I use infrequently, like forceps. In short, it restored my joy in the practice of obstetrics. It is the biggest single reason why I am still doing OB today."
