The amount of knowledge from a two day complex HPB course is mind blowing 🤯. The best part? Learning followed by actively applying it with hands-on training to truly understand the tissue planes in a low-stakes situation. Thanks again Dr. @DanielAnayaMD and @MHepatobiliary!!
And that’s a wrap…5th Annual @MHepatobiliary complex #hpb surgery course in the books! Great camaraderie and bright future ahead for these incoming #CGSO fellows. Grateful yo our guest speakers Drs. Katz, Warner and @EAVegaMD. @MoffittNews @MHepatobiliary @karenluMD

My last case of residency was a facial melanoma, which ended in a very correct way; however, it’s been 3 weeks, 1 day, 3 hours, and 20 some odd minutes since my last case and I REALLY miss the OR.
