A world-renowned NYC pediatric neurosurgeon who separated conjoined twins has died from coronavirus, reports Daily Mail.
Dr. James T. Goodrich, 73, died after complications related to COVID-19, the hospital where he worked announced.
He separated twins Jadon and Anais McDonald four years ago at The Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center in New York City in a 27-hour surgery.
The hospital has described Goodrich as a ‘humble and truly caring man’ who ‘did not crave the limelight and was beloved by his colleagues and staff.’
They added that he was a skilled neurosurgeon who was also kind and used to bake cookies during the holidays to give to the nurses that he worked with.
Montefiore Medicine CEO Dr. Philip O. Ozuah said: ‘Dr. Goodrich was a beacon of our institution and he will be truly missed. His expertise and ability were second only to his kind heart and manner.’
In a tweet the hospital said: ‘The Montefiore community is mourning the loss of Dr. James T. Goodrich, world-renowned pediatric neurosurgeon. Dr. Goodrich passed away on March 30, 2020 from complications associated with COVID-19.’
