Ever been around people who are so disgustingly smart, that they make you feel inadequate? Meet Dr. Robert Wenham, Chair of OBGYN Oncology at Moffitt, one of the finest cancer institutes in the world.
Soft spoken and empathetic, with a striking personality, he had an excellent bedside manner. When one is in the business of saving lives and alleviating suffering, it is a quality that goes a long way in inspiring confidence.
I watched his mannerisms and his command over his area of expertise. I couldn’t help but feel inadequate in terms of my professional contributions. I am certainly not minimizing my work as as an educator. He is just a tough act to follow.
I was in awe of his skill set and his ability to give his patients hope. People like Dr. Wenham set the bar of excellence so high, that few can ever measure up. I am just glad he is on our side.
