Neil’s passing at such a young age is tremendous profound tragedy beyond words. His absence leaves a global void; Everyone who knew him is well aware of his incredible surgical prowess, impeccable judgment, innovative creative mind, keen wit, and engaging demeanor. Those people
Our friend @Neil_J_Smart has given his final lecture, the apprentices learning from his wise words, great times, & hard work - patients getting the very best. Legacy exists in the actions of those that follow & the stories continuing to be told & yes mate, “You did good” RIP

The sense of community is one of the many things I love about HPB surgery. So happy to catch up with my previous @augis mentor @Surgerygirl8, and with @richlaing at the UK HPB robotic conference. Both supported me during my training & I’m always grateful.
