I have a charity called the Chain Of Hope, where we target children from poor areas where heart surgery is not available, and we offer our services.
Magdi YacoubMy dad was a surgeon in Egypt. He was a general surgeon. As a little boy I always admired what he was doing, and I wanted to do surgery.
Magdi YacoubI dont have any regrets. I consider myself really privileged to belong to medicine and do what I do. I would do it all again.
Magdi YacoubWhat I worry about is the lack of understanding in society around the world that there is a divide in the world between those who have and those who do not.
