SHOW NOTES
Farewell to Dr 'Superman' Shun - From the Sydney Children's Hospital Network
source: https://www.schn.health.nsw.gov.au/news/articles/2023/02/farewell-to-dr-superman-shun
For hundreds of families, Dr Albert Shun is more than a surgeon. He is a real-world Superman who gave their children more time and a second chance of life.
Whether it be transplant surgery, cancer operations, or even separating conjoined twins - Dr Shun is a pioneering, world-class surgeon who has built a reputation as a clinician focussed on compassionate, family-centred care.
But there becomes a time when all heroes must hang up their capes and that time has now come for Dr Shun.
Leaving a long-lasting legacy in paediatric transplant and general surgery globally, Dr Shun is retiring following an incredible career spanning more than four decades.
Dr Shun dedicated 45 years of his life to the public service and called the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network (SCHN) home for almost all of this time.
Significantly, Dr Shun was the first recognised paediatric transplant surgeon in Australia and has since performed more than 500 transplants, giving many of these children the opportunity to grow up and live full lives.
What I love about being a transplant surgeon is we’re able to keep families together,” Dr Shun said.
