The Metric of One: A Driving Force

Summary: Doctors are judged by lots of numbers, like how fast they work or how happy patients are. But Dr. Enyi, a hospital doctor who works at night, focuses on his own special number: zero. He calls it the "Metric of One," which means he tries his hardest to have zero preventable deaths. If you see him running down the hall or skipping small talk, it's because his patients are very sick and time is precious. He wants to make sure families don't lose their loved ones too soon. When he's not saving lives, this intense doctor actually likes to do triathlons and ice skate!
