Another wave of UT Southwestern surgery graduates is on to bigger and better things. In June, the Department of Surgery celebrated this year’s graduates with dinner and speeches from Program Director Kareem AbdelFattah, M.D., Chair Herbert J. Zeh, III, M.D., John Mansour, M.D., Rohit Sharma, M.D., and Patricia Bergen, M.D., who retired earlier in the year. As is tradition, the graduating chiefs were also gently roasted by the third-year residents. Congratulations to the graduating class of 2018.
