A patient brought me these thoughtful gifts today—and it honestly meant more than they know.

In the middle of long days and tough moments, reminders like this keep me grounded in why I chose this path. It’s humbling, uplifting, and pushes me to keep giving my best every day.

Grateful for the trust my patients place in me. 💙

While most gather with family today, many patients will spend Thanksgiving in hospitals — and countless healthcare professionals will spend the day caring for them.

I’m working this Thanksgiving too. Illness doesn’t take holidays, and neither do we. Our team shared a small Thanksgiving lunch at the hospital, a reminder of the support we give each other when we’re away from our own families. I’m adding that photo.

To every doctor, nurse, tech, and staff member working today: thank you for showing up with dedication and heart.

Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Thanksgiving. 🦃💙

🌞 Sunday Musings from Your Surgeon 🩺

What truly determines success? Not luck, not talent — but grit. 💪

Grit is the unwavering determination to keep going when progress is slow, when obstacles seem endless, and when comfort calls you to stop. It’s the quiet strength that fuels persistence, discipline, and resilience — the traits that make real transformation possible.

So, as we step into a new week, let’s rededicate ourselves to the journey. Even small, incremental progress is still progress. 🚶‍♂️➡️

Keep showing up. Keep moving forward. The destination is reached one determined step at a time. 🌟

🌞 Sunday Musings from Your Surgeon 🌿

“The body is not cured by the same means that it is wounded.” — Epicurus

Each morning, let’s wake up with gratitude and positivity. 💫

Don’t dwell on what’s left to let go — celebrate the strength, choices, and small victories that brought you this far. Every healthy meal, every walk, every mindful moment counts.

Progress isn’t perfection — it’s persistence. It’s getting up, moving forward, and refusing to give up.

You can knock me down, but you can’t stop me from working toward more strength every day. 💪💚

Let’s begin this week with a positive mind, strong heart, and steady focus on becoming our best selves.

Had a great time speaking at the Doctor’s Roundtable at Ponce Health Sciences University – St. Louis Campus! 🎤

I shared my journey as a surgeon in private practice — the challenges, lessons, and rewards along the way. The best part was connecting with such bright and curious medical students who asked thoughtful questions about life beyond training.

Teaching as faculty in the Department of Surgery is truly one of the most fulfilling parts of what I do. Sharing a few moments from an inspiring evening below 👇
