I went to the hospital with my parents for prenatal visits. The doctors became my heroes and inspired me to follow their path. I have a background in engineering -- I always liked working with my hands -- and surgery has some similarities with engineering: You diagnose a problem and fix it.

Surgeons need to adapt to offer the most advanced procedures to their patients. I focus on robotic-assisted surgery. The field has advanced greatly in the last ten years.
