@LuisEAlamo Show them what we are made of! 💪🏾 There is a long list of Puerto Rican residents who have excelled during their training, programs have kept them as faculty and are currently program directors and chairs at various stateside programs. Lots of luck!

@PedSurgUpdate Time under anesthesia depends on who performs the surgery. For me its significantly quicker using a scope. Difficult to measure pain in this population. Under the supraumbilical incision you perform a rather large, almost laparotomy-like abdominal wall incision to fit the pylorus

[Jorge J. Zequeira @zequej]

@jmarkwalt @WMMajors Wow, that’s phenomenal! Congratulations to all three.
