Why Is Walter Douglas Boyd Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Walter Douglas Boyd, M.D. is a notable Canadian cardiothoracic surgeon. born in Ottawa, he is a graduate of Carleton University, and the University of Ottawa for his medical degree. In 1999, he Boyd completed the world's first closed-chest, beating-heart coronary artery bypass surgery with the use of the ZEUS Robotic Surgical System, and has conducted pioneering work in cardiothoracic surgery and the use of robotic surgical systems. Dr. Boyd is also recognized for performing the first human extracellular matrix xenograft implant for cardiovascular repair in March 2006.
