This may be ten years later but this is still worth writing . I was very sad to hear of Dr Zahab's passing . He was my surgeon in 1985 and one of the kindest and most compassionate physicians I have ever known. A very influential and brilliant gentleman. Dr Zahab was a Physician and Surgeon that other physicians could aspire to , in intellect and character. Rest in Peace , Dr Zahab
