In October, five physicians and a medical student from UT Southwestern performed as part of World Doctors Orchestra (WDO), a nonprofit organization that plays benefit concerts worldwide. Two other faculty members assisted behind the scenes with audiovisual and photography support. It was just such a pleasure and a privilege,” said  Sing-Yi Feng, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics, who organized the local effort. The WDO group performed twice, first at the Caruth Auditorium in Dallas and then at the Eisemann Center for Performing Arts in Richardson. Check out highlights from one of the concerts and a practice session leading up to the performances in the photo gallery below.
