  • Overview

    Despite the tremendous conflict in Iraq, there have been many medical miracles. One such story centers around a young Iraqi girl, found ill by a United States Marine Corps battalion surgeon, who suspected the girl had a potentially life-threatening heart condition, fixable only by immediate surgery. The girl was subsequently brought to the United States for this complex, life-saving surgery, performed by Dr. Karla Christian at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital in Nashville. Host Dr. Mark Nolan Hill talks with Dr. Christian about the medical logistics involved in bringing this girl to the U.S. for surgery.
