The legacy of a surgeon - in memoriam Dr. İsmail Demir
In this perspective article, we highlighted some special aspects of being a surgeon that are typically not taught in medical training. Departing from a real and personal story, the present manuscript is intended to communicate how surgery imbues us doctors with an unparalleled degree of satisfaction, gratification, meaning and fulfilment, like no other field of medicine.
