Insights

Better patient care begins with better thinking.

Insights is a curated collection of original essays and selected commentaries exploring the ideas, decisions, and questions that shape medicine.

They are written from a single vantage, that of a cardiothoracic surgeon and physician-scientist who lives the questions they examine.

This gallery is intentionally curated.

Every essay is published only when it contributes something worth careful thought.

Dimitri’s Letters

Some reflections are better shared as letters than essays.

Dimitri’s Letters is an occasional series of reflections on medicine, research, leadership, and the pursuit of better patient care.
