I highly appreciate the wonderful work that you do. Thank you on behalf of humanity. Dr. Burke do you have any recommendations for aspiring college/med students? What motivated you to go into SURGERY? Why cardio? why pediatric? Did the residency period make you think twice? How about the politics (such as the malpractice insurance rates)? I think that you are a fantastic role model for much of the aspiring youth out there. I'm just curious as to how you became as amazing as you are.

Thank you!!

I was lucky, I found my one true thing in high school, looking at a picture of a heart transplant in Life magazine, I knew at that moment what I would do with my life. Residency is hard, you have to love what you are doing, or it will hurt you. I'm very conservative politically, I believe in personal responsibility, and charity. I have met many politicians, and they are not the solution to our problems. I am not amazing, but I was taught to work hard.

Good Luck, RPB

I wish you the best...

How long does such surgery last in reality? Everything shown on your videos Dr Burke are made easy because of your skilled knowledges, yet I am quite certain that years of practice take place first and your dedication to those patients make a huge difference

Thank you for those videos.
