General, Laparoscopic & Vascular Surgery

“I wanted to be a surgeon since I was 10 years old. There is no other profession like it on Earth. The sense of gratification you feel when you care for patients and the trust they place in doctors is unique. I like to sit down when I see patients so they do not feel as though I am in a hurry. I also like to put myself in their position and explain their treatment in a way they will understand.”
