He was a wise man who never forgot you, he was a wise man who was humble

Thank you for writing this wonderful article about Dr. Pahigian. I was his student resident and colleague for many years. He always had a smile when he greeted anyone and was the most kind and cosiderate attending physician I have met. A master in the operating room who was available 24/7. He taught us the meaning of compassion, lifelong learning, and excellent surgical skill. His legacy will live on forever via the thousands physicians who had the priviledge of working him.
