Today my father was back in the OR, next door, next room, operating on crazy cases. It felt like the old days.
He is back for a while substituting one of my partners for a few months.
I have worked so much since I was a med school student to have the opportunity to work with this man.
I was lucky to share my 5 first years of practice as a surgeon with him, to have him everyday nearby to continue learning from him.
Now he’s retired, we share even more.
I wish all of us, passionate by what we do, to retire the way he does… being back in the OR every time he gets a chance. Teaching youngsters, giving patients the best of his knowledge and experience. I was always under his spotlight, and for this,I am the luckiest surgeon in the world.
