Another great day in Sao Paulo. Today we visited th other two major centers in the city: Santa Casa medical school- pavilhano fernandinho, as well as the Federal University of Sao Paulo. Our two hosts (Dr Miguel Akkari and Dr Alexandre Lourenco) gave us access to their hospitals and entertained us with fantastic meals for both lunch and dinner. We all sincerely appreciate the hospitality that we received at the generosity of the Sociedade Brasileira de Ortopedia Pediatrica.
We had many engaging discussions and debates concerning the practice of pediatric orthopedics over the last 2 and a half days. Some discussions strayed from the care of children and landed us in the midst of ongoing deliberations concerning the best soccer team in Sao Paulo. It seems that their is an underground movement in support of Corinthians, but in the end we were given shirts in honor of Santos. Let's just agree that there can be no agreement concerning the best team in Brazil.
We thank our Brazilian hosts and prepare for an early departure for Buenos Aires in the morning.
