You don't have a family doctor anymore like you did when you were a kid, who treated you throughout your life.

I've got so many weaknesses.

I meditate and I'm passionate about it.

If you want to be healthy and live to one hundred, do qigong.

I like shows that have some level of intelligence to them. When it's not as predictable, when you don't know what's coming at you.

As a surgeon you have to have a controlled arrogance. If it's uncontrolled, you kill people, but you have to be pretty arrogant to saw through a person's chest, take out their heart and believe you can fix it. Then, when you succeed and the patient survives, you pray, because it's only by the grace of God that you get there.

In Turkey, you're not allowed to be left alone in the hospital. The nurse teaches the family how to do things, and somebody is always there with the patient.
