Back to real life after a magical two days in beautiful Istanbul!

It was a privilege to represent City of Hope at the Annual Robotic Surgery Collaboration Meeting and share my experience with robotic Whipple surgery. Wonderful to reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and exchange ideas with colleagues from around the world.
Thanks dr Kudsi for the invite and Drs Baca and Balik for the generous hospitality and phenomenal organization!
Teşekkürler, İstanbul! 🇹🇷
