Gary es profesor en la Virginia Tech Carilion School of Neuroscience y en la Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine.
Por qué me encanta enseñar
Me jubilé recientemente como jefe de neurocirugía en la Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine. A lo largo de mi carrera realicé miles de cirugías neuroquirúrgicas de alta complejidad y traté pacientes en el ejército de los Estados Unidos, en el Geisinger Medical Center y en la Carilion Clinic. También escribí varios libros sobre burnout y resiliencia en medicina. En la actualidad continúo enseñando y escribo novelas.
