- My young patients fly into surgery dressed as superheroes. Surgery became a lot less scary for them.
Dr. Leandro Brandão Guimarães, a pediatric ear, nose, and throat doctor, provides superhero costumes for young patients to wear into surgery, reducing fear and transforming the experience. Parents are now allowed to accompany children before anesthesia, and the tradition has been ongoing for six years with costumes purchased from a Brazilian seller.
