Before entering the operating room, this surgeon does something few colleagues dare to show in public.

He takes several medals of Catholic saints out of his pocket and carries them with him during every procedure. He neither hides nor downplays them: to him, they are as much a part of his preparation as years of study, steady hands, and the scalpel. Before each cut, there is a silent prayer that no one sees but that accompanies him in every decision.
His story became a simple but powerful reminder: science saves lives, but sometimes faith is what steadies the hand that operates. A small gesture that says a great deal about how some professionals find strength beyond technical knowledge.
