A slice of peace.

In 2009 I visited a number of pediatric emergency departments in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem to see whether there were opportunities for me to contribute as a physician. I was particularly taken with Professor Eitan Kerem, chairman of the Department of Pediatrics at Hadassah–Mount Scopus in Jerusalem. Professor Kerem described the history of Hadassah Hospital, the diversity of patients and disease, and the underserved population treated there. I left thinking what an incredible place this would be to work. By the time I landed home in Boston, my plan was in place.
