Jeff was instrumental in bringing top notch fellowship trained colorectal surgery care to HCMC, with many great residents following in his steps. A well deserved tribute. @HennepinHC @mncolonrectal
Can’t believe it’s already been 4 years. It’s bittersweet, but happy to see this memorial installed at the surgery center at HCMC. It was a project Jeff was so instrumental in building.
