This fellow was in last fall for 2500 grafts to address his frontal third. He’s a machine, having done 2 ironman events, the Canada death march, and the Alcatraz escape triathlon. Also, he pulled my wisdom teeth when I was in 9th grade, his first year in practice.
Shown are intraop pictures and a postop day 3 picture exhibiting minimal swelling. He sent a pic of the scar and front at a month. And I stopped by at about 3 months and got a pic too. As you can expect based on his will power, he took 2 pain pills, and immediately returned to work. I’d prepared him for significant swelling and lost a friendly bet to him as he assured me that he wouldn’t swell postoperatively. When I asked how he did it he replied “good genes and willpower".
He is from my hometown and I stopped by his office last week and took a picture. He looks great although he is using a medicine which appears to be impacting his crown…knowing this guy we may be doing a crown case. He’s in his mid 60’s and going strong. I saw him just a day or 2 before my first of 2 ankle surgery, so that I’m on crutches as I post this and he’s likely running his usual 10 miles during his lunch break.
Good genes indeed.
