I just received word that Mr. Boeree was tragically killed in a traffic accident on Wednesday. I’m entirely at a loss for words and feel a deep sadness for his family, friends, colleagues, patients and those who will never have the chance to be helped by this wonderful man.
He was a kind person, an extraordinary surgeon and I considered him a friend. Thank you for everything Nick, you will be profoundly missed. My thoughts go out to your family during this dark time.
Edit: Some more tributes for Mr. Boeree and the charity his family has chosen for donations.
