About this episode

Watch and listen to our newest episode of The Lebanese Physicians' Podcast co-hosted with Dr. MohammadAli Jardali. In this episode, we discuss with Drs. Ahmad Zaghal (Pediatric Surgery at AUBMC) and Houssein Darwish (Neurosurgery at AUBMC) the recent accomplishment of the separation of conjoined twins at AUBMC.

We discuss the great team of doctors, nurses, and personnel who were instrumental in making this story a success. We delve into the planning phases, the day of the surgery, and the post surgical follow-up of the twins. Then, we talk about the resilience of the physicians and healthcare workers still being able to perform complex surgeries despite the unstable economic and political situation in Lebanon.
