For episode 31, we are honoured to be joined by Dr Alberto Pena, from the International Center for Colorectal and Urological Care, Children's Hospital Colorado, USA. Dr Pena is an iconic figure in the field of Pediatric Colorectal surgery and is the pioneer of the groundbreaking PSARP surgery, first performed in 1980 which revolutionised treatment of IA/ARM patients. We talk about his remarkable life's journey as a surgeon and how he started his career in Mexico and due to the illness of his son with a severe congenital condition which led him to the USA and his passion in pediatric surgery began. Dr Pena is a truly remarkable person and I encourage all to take the time to listen to this podcast where you will understand how special he is and the love and care he has for his patients and families as well as teaching other doctors all over the world.
