Henry Marsh
“We have been most successful, however, when our patients return to their homes and get on with their lives and never need to see us again. They are grateful, no doubt, but happy to put us and the horror of their illness behind them. Perhaps they never quite realized just how dangerous the operation had been and how lucky they were to have recovered so well. Whereas the surgeon, for a while, has known heaven, having come very close to hell.”
Henry Marsh, Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery - as seen on 'life-changing' BBC documentary Confessions of a Brain Surgeon

Henry Marsh
“We have achieved most as surgeons when our patients recover completely and forget us completely. All patients are immensely grateful at first after a successful operation but if the gratitude persists it usually means that they have not been cured of the underlying problem and that they fear that they may need us in the future. They feel that they must placate us, as though we were angry gods or at least the agents of an unpredictable fate.”
Henry Marsh, Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death, and Brain Surgery

“Some of my operations are great triumphs and tremendous. But they're only triumphs because there are also disasters”
Henry Marsh, Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery

Henry Marsh
“The idea that my sucker is moving through thought itself, through emotion and reason, that memories, dreams and reflections should consist of jelly, is simply too strange to understand.”
Henry Marsh, Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery

Henry Marsh
“Hope is beyond price and the pharmaceutical companies, which are run by businessmen not altruists, price their products accordingly.”
Henry Marsh, Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery
