As many of our readers know, Paul Pottinger is one of the foremost experts in infectious diseases - especially in the challenging problem of periprosthetic infections of the shoulder (see this post).
What you may not know is that he is also an accomplished alpinist. On May 20 this photo was taken of him on the summit of Mount Everest. Being a bit superstitious, we did not want to post and toast to his success until he was safely back at base camp and now he is!
Congratulations, Paul!
