The greatest thing about taking care of kids is just being able to work with kids. They're fun, they're incredibly resilient, and it's really remarkable. You can send kids into heart surgery, and they can bounce back in days and they're back to feeling like themselves. It's really fun to work with kids.

Our ability to treat cancer is always limited by what we can see or feel, and that's another exciting thing. The fact that we're trying to come up with new technologies that actually lets us see individual tiny cancer cells because what we can see at the time of surgery, we feel very good about removing, it's the disease we can't see that's possibly going to show up later on, so that's why we always follow cancer patients for up to five years to be sure the cancer doesn't come back.
