Being a doctor is probably one of the hardest jobs anyone could ever hope to have. The long hours, the incredible responsibility, at times it seems like the whole weight of the world is on their shoulders when they're in the middle of a dangerous surgery. These men and women have to have nerves of steel and the softest hands on Earth.
So when Dr. Leinwand came into his patient, Kaylee Peebles, hospital room after a particularly hard surgery, Kaylee was quite surprised to see him carrying a guitar.
While Kaylee had to fight through the horrible conditions of Crohn's disease, she has a lot to thank Dr. Leinwand for. Because a year after this video was filmed, you can find Kaylee studying happily in college, feeling healthy and doing her best to earn a social worker's degree!
It turns out that the good doctor always liked to play music, and when Kaylee and her mom found out about that they always tried to get their hero to play them a song. So when he walked in that fateful day to perform a beautiful rendition of "Closer to Fine" by The Indigo Girls, the two women were giddy with excitement for the amazing personal concert.
The recovery process after any operation is always a tough process no matter how strong you are, but when Dr. Leinwand pulled this off? Let's just say he's quite a catch and has a wonderful bedside manner!
Now that Kaylee is feeling better, this will always be a happy memory that she'll share with her family over the years, thank goodness it was all caught on video by mom!
Please SHARE this wonderful video if you think it takes a special kind of person to be a doctor!
