Blessed to be a part of the Jefferson surgery family. More grateful than ever to be a physician trying to be better every day. This recognition is owed to my amazing wife, who tackled Hodgkin’s Lymphoma during the past 8 months. We have so many people to thank. @JEFFsurgery

“That too shall be called an Onlay”
But why, sir?
“Unknowable”
