Incredibly honored to host our spectacular senior resident @NeurosurgeryNM & future spine & peripheral nerve surgeon Dr Pavlos Texakalidis for our upcoming @virtualspine. He’ll discuss prevention & techniques for PJK & PJF in adult spine deformity.

Critics are loud. Helpers are rare. Be rare.

Every great team starts with great leadership. Honored to stand beside our chair of neurosurgery, Dr Lesniak — a mentor, a visionary, and a force in the field.

Great catching up with my friend and top-tier plastic surgeon Dr. Marco Ellis at our favorite spot—The Bellevue Chicago. Big congrats on his new role as Residency Training Program Director!

Ego is not your amigo.

Your EQ will save you.

Dr Dahdaleh is a role model educator in our field. His constant encourgament to trainees and aspiring neurosurgeons is admirable.

Train like it’s your last case.

In a world chasing extremes, remember: Aurea mediocritas. The golden balance is where real virtue lives. PS. Thank you, Aristotle

You won’t find the route to winning on Google Maps. It’s just grit, sweat, and relentless work.

Happy Father’s Day to all the studs out there —real kings don’t need crowns.

Ran into my friend Chris at the gym—he’s a bodybuilder. I told him I’ve been too busy at work to eat healthy or exercise. He looked me dead in the eye and said: “You have lives to save, brother. Save yours first.” Respect.

Dear IMG, Jordan just made the World Cup. No dream is too far. You will make it—just keep showing up with grit and hope. 2004 IMG

What a historic moment!
