Hi @bsally816 - welcome to the forum!! Ask away any questions - there will always be someone to throw up an answer and/or suggestions!
What area of healthcare do you work in?
After having your own BC treatment - I would imagine it would be quite difficult to separate yourself from your patients' experiences - but I am sure that many work thru the issues (like @JoeyLiz)
to be effective and very empathetic in treating others at this most important time of their lives.
You might like to read Liz O'Riodan's Breast Cancer story - she is/was a UK BC surgeon - and has only recently decided not to continue operating for a variety of reasons.

take care, be kind to yourself & all the best for your own treatment xxxx
