Henry Marsh has worked on the surgical front line for his whole life. He has seen thrilling highs and heartbreaking lows, but his enthusiasm for the neurosurgical profession has never changed. After the release of his acclaimed New York Times book Do No Harm, Marsh left his full-time position in England and began working pro bono in Nepal and Ukraine. He discusses the challenges of working in these unstable, underdeveloped nations in Admissions, as well as the new perspectives it has given him on the practise of medicine. Marsh acknowledges the responsibility that comes with attempting to lessen pain in others.
