    When I interviewed at the West Roxbury VA Hospital in 1976, I also interviewed with Jack Collins, then the new Chief of Cardiac Surgery at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, and one of my good friends today. The first question Jack asked me was, "Why on earth do you want to go to the VA? Why don't you join us here at the Brigham? It is a much more prestigious place for you." What I didn't tell Jack then was that the VA offered me a much better chance to assume a leadership role in caring for a very appreciative group of wonderful patients, and also a much better opportunity to advance my academic career, than the prestigious Brigham and Woman's Hospital.
