This week we review a paper from the Amrita Institute in Kerala, India on outcomes of infant surgery in that region and discuss the results with its senior author, Dr. Raman Krishna Kumar. Professor Kumar explains how this large center in India has been able to develop a program that would be the envy of any city in the world, all on a 'shoestring' budget. He reviews with us the path he took from the time he left the US with cardiology training and how he and his associates were able to build one of the finest cardiovascular centers for children in the world. This is a fascinating and inspiring discussion with one of finest cardiologists and human beings in our field. Dr. Kumar's stirring accomplishments for the children of India are noteworthy and his discussion is one of the true highlights of this podcast thus far. For donations to Dr. Kumar's center, please reach out to him at kumar_rk@yahoo.com. doi: 10.1053/j.semtcvs.2015.09.008.
