Tonight at the annual Mayo Clinic Thoracic Surgery Clagett Dinner, I learned about the unique tradition of the VP giving a non-medical talk. Dr. Isabelle Opitz spoke about literature & how it connects us to the human condition, and highlighted literary greats among Mayo’s history.

Best wishes to Mauricio Miranda as he departs Mayo Clinic to embark on new projects in CA. He was the surgical assistant in my team when I started as a baby attending. I am forever grateful to him for helping me get to a good start. Best of luck Mauricio during this new stage!

#Leadership 🧵 As the years go by, my respect grows for those who do their job every day - without drama, on time, on budget. The best teams are filled with people who do their jobs consistently, accurately and correctly the first time. “Do Your Job” is most famously associated
