Summary
- I am an old retired Urologist that does not assume to practice, but still interested in the specialty, especially in children. Good luck to you and permit me on occasion to attend a local meeting. One of my first loves was Pediatric Urology, but changes due to time and money has altered the type and character of practice. Cook County Hospital was my playground and I stayed on for many years teaching and developing ideas. It is not the same I know, but things will be better and I hope happier for you. Ray Firfer 1948
