THURSDAY, MAY 31: Dr. John Libertino, Chairman of the Urology Department at Lahey Clinic, will be the main speaker at the Brown-Darrell Clinic's quarterly Docs for Dinner next Thursday evening at Lido Restaurant, Elbow Beach.

Libertino, who is often referred to as "the surgeon's surgeon" by his colleagues, counts scores of Bermudians among his patients at Lahey.

"We are fortunate and proud to have a speaker of Dr. Libertino's stature in Bermuda," said Dr. Ewart F. Brown, Executive Chairman of Brown-Darrell.

More than 35 local doctors are expected to attend the event to hear Dr. Libertino's presentation entitled "Evolution of CT Scanning and Novel Techniques in partial Nephrectomy".
