Gonna miss this beauty. We had some fun too in between all his incredibly hard work. Welcome Dr. Kohei Kinoshita to the team.

[Dalhousie HPB/Transplant Surgery @DalHPB]

Proud of our fellows, Dr. Santiago Rubio (Kidney Transplant) and Dr. Zuhaib Mir (HPB/Liver Transplant) on successfully completing their training with us. With 300+ transplants, you have helped change so many lives in Atlantic Canada! @ASTSChimera @AHPBA @CHPBAsurg

Kidneys from donors with acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-RRT) can be safely transplanted with outcomes comparable to AKI donors not on dialysis. Careful selection expands the donor pool without compromising graft survival. @ucdavis #TXPforAll https://t.co/riYWJNCWAd

Was a real treat to have @AlpSener2 visit us to give a masterclass on how to mitigate burnout in surgical training/practice and present exciting innovations happening across Canada in the world of renal transplant. @DalHPB

@CaleLeeson We loved having you dude!

Data suggesting more people with PrCa (current or treated) should be getting timely organ transplants.

Zero evidence (to my knowledge) immunosuppression alters natural history of PrCa.

@lee_c_zhao @YouTube Love your videos Lee. Keep em’ coming. For your Y-V’s when there is a crossing vessel do you ever hammock/pex the crossing vessel up higher on the pelvis so it’s not as close to the recon? Had always dismembered but like the idea of keeping back wall intact where possible.

Seems fitting finishing off a marathon five kidney transplants in 30 hours on #GreenShirtDay here @DalUrology @DalHPB

[Organ Donation and Transplant Research Foundation @TRFofBC]

Because of Logan Boulet, April 7 has become known as #GreenShirtDay. A day to remember and celebrate our organ donors and the many gifts they have given.
It is also an important reminder for people to register their wishes and to share their wishes with their loved ones.

That’s a wrap to 2023! We took a page from @Spotify and did a wrapped for our transplants.

Can’t tell if I like the musings or the .GIFs better but always appreciate people reflecting on the challenges adopting new techniques and pushing outside comfort zones.
