Congratulations to all those who matched in transplant fellowship programs today. MCW remains committed to training surgeons interested in kidney, liver and pancreas Tx as well as complex HPB processes. Our growing volumes support a rich experience for all organs. Interested?
Yes, our proton machine is amazing, but more amazing are the multidisciplinary experts who know how best to deploy it. If you are facing cancer, our team is tops.
your Boss becomes your best friend, mentor, partner, teacher. Ironic is, she is the one who reminded me of “Surgery, like war, is hard,but it is better than war. It saves lives and binds men and women of good will together in deepest friendship”

@BenSamstein@HiroNewYork@HpbOf@AHPBA@IHPBA@ASTSChimera@EmilyWinslow4@GUH_WHCSurgRes Very true. These models are soft, I’m passing red rubber tubes through them to create fake vessels or biliary tree and fellows can practice to not injure them, find them and Clip them safely . But as you said , we are still far from depending on them as the real replica.
People usually leave the last sentence out, what ones Rene Leriche said:
“Every surgeon carries within himself (/herself) a small cemetery, where from time to time he goes to pray—a place of bitterness and regret, where he (/she) must look for an explanation for his failures”.
