We will miss you, Orlo. For the hundreds of surgeons you trained, you taught us more than endocrine surgery. You always saw the best in us and brought out the best in everyone. We remember your kindness. Goodbye, my teacher, my mentor, my friend.

Thank you @UTKnoxSurgery and @TVaghaiwalla for inviting me to visit with your wonderful faculty and residents, it was an honor and a pleasure. Congratulations on starting your transoral thyroidectomy program! @BCM_Surgery @bcmhouston
