• After a major earthquake in Pakistan in 2005, Dr. Aksoy voluntarily flew to and worked in the region. Under extreme conditions, he utilized fragments found in the earthquake as implants and assisted earthquake victims in returning to life. He left the region with a heartfelt send-off that he will always remember.
