Dr. Mavroudis was born in Thasos, Greece in July of 1946. He spent the first year of his life in his birthplace before immigrating to the United States with his family in 1947. In his inspiring, extraordinary memoir, Dr. Mavroudis recounts his youth in New Jersey with his parents making a living through a luncheonette-ice cream parlor and his rise to become one of the most world-renowned pediatric congenital heart surgeons.
Dr. Mavroudis established the second successful neonatal cardiac transplant program in the world. He made many scientific and clinical contributions to the field by his research, multiple publications, his numerous editions of his textbook, Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, now in its 5th Edition, and educating the next generation of surgeons, including his own son.
Finding the Way is the tale of resourcefulness, hard work, and where humble beginnings lead to extraordinary endings.
