I was born and grew up in Northern Iran by the Caspian Sea (which is actually a lake, but the largest of them all). That makes me Persian or Iranian (some favor the former but I don’t care). I did my med school in Tehran before moving to the US to continue my education. Some would tell you I’m a research freak but at the end of the day I love seeing patients and being in the OR more than anything else (not more than a nice Western Section AUA trip to Hawaii though!). My controversial opinion is that politicians should be offered free vasectomies. That’s how as Urologists we can make the world a better place.
