Professor Piet Hoebeke is a urologist at Ghent University Hospital, Belgium. He did not immediately know that he wanted to specialise in urology, but that turned out to be the perfect specialisation for him, as urology requires you to be both a great surgeon and a great person. And that is Professor Hoebeke. Bringing an operation to a successful conclusion is difficult, but so is entering into conversation with men who are plagued by insecurity, with men who do not feel male, or women who do. Professor Hoebeke is not only an authority in the field of surgery, but also an important voice in the debate about gender fluidity in an often rigid society.
Piet Hoebeke knows dick all, which in this case is the highest compliment. -- Tom Rosenthal eye-opening insights from a leading urologist * Men's Health *
