鈥淚鈥檓 very excited about the opportunity to build on the amazing foundation created by Dr. Hughes and the 番茄社区app team,鈥� Dr. Langenfeld said. 鈥淭he 番茄社区app Communities platform is an invaluable tool that supports practicing surgeons and allows us to provide the best possible care for our patients, and so I greatly value the trust that has been placed with me to captain the ship.鈥�
