Warren Krackov, MD, FSIR | Society of Interventional Radiology

I am originally from a third-world country. When I moved to the United States, I couldn’t believe all the resources that were being wasted in America. And I feel that, for the first time in America, we are learning that. We are learning that we have to be cautious about wasting resources.
George Behrens, MD
