ESGURS-the European GU Reconstruction meeting . Once agin privileged to be in the room where it happens . Crane Center.

If it's Thursday it must be Antwerp

If it's Saturday it must be WPATH in Lisbon!

This meeting crams quite literally all the planets experts in my exact surgical field into the same room. It is an astonishing opportunity to speak directly to other experts doing the same work as us, at the same high volume and skill level, and learn their tips and tricks at the same time as they are curious about our tips and tricks. Legendarily great opportunity I have a half a dozen new questions and principles to discuss with our extended team and Austin when I return. Very excited.

Talks 4-5 went swimmingly, thank you.

Now it's time to meet with my old reconstructive urology colleague and Lisbon native Dr. Francisco Martins and see what he's been up to!Crane Center

Proud! See you there? Crane Center

(This is the European Genitourinary Reconstructive Society. It's a cherished invitation because I sometimes think the Eurozone imagines we in North America are still running around in unmanned bearskins)
