Mark Orloff talks transplanted surgery and famous family
Dr. Mark Orloff is a professor of surgery at the University of Rochester Medical Center in upstate New York. He's been there for 34 years on Faculty and is coming up to retirement.
He was born in Germany, where his father was in the military and moved around a bit before landing in San Diego, where he spent most of his early life in a beach style community living the southern California dream. He grew up in a family of six siblings that produced several surgeons, including his sister Susan, who is also a liver transplanter.
His father was Chair of Surgery in San Diego and was something of a legend in the world of HPB surgery. So, as you can imagine, he understands the challenges, both good and bad, growing up in the shadow of a famous father. His remarkable mother essentially brought up the kids in many respects before returning to a new career as a diagnostic radiologist in her 50s.
Mark has much to say about almost all of these aspects of his life and upbringing, as well as commenting on where he sees the future of organ transplantation. This is an interview that you will not want to miss as he brings much wisdom to the discussion.
