This video serves as an exploration of recent experiences in reconstructive urology, particularly in the context of combat trauma in Ukraine, featuring insights from our AUA members: reconstructive urologists Drs Shubham Gupta and Kirtishri Mishra, alongside urologic oncologist Dr Bukavina and PGY4 resident Dr Andrew Drozd from Case Western Reserve. From the planning to execution, the conversation explores a range of challenging situations faced on their latest journey to Ukraine. The team focuses not only on the lessons learned, but true moments of inspiration. However, beyond merely recounting these experiences, this discussion aims to inspire viewers to transcend their daily routines and embrace acts of kindness, thereby fostering a culture of compassion and altruism within our AUA community. It encourages physicians and health care professionals to consider how they can make a meaningful difference beyond the confines of their clinical duties, advocating for a broader engagement with humanity, through examples of ongoing humanitarian efforts led by these 4 urologists.
