The OWL - January 2018 - Featuring Greg Pattakos, Class of '98

Page 1


Greg was born in Athens, Greece but lived in the United States from ages 2 to 10. When he was ten years old his family moved back to Greece and therefore was enrolled in ACS Athens, as he "had become accustomed to the American style of education." Greg attended ACS Athens from the fifth grade until graduating in 1998 where he completed the full I.B. program in the Academy and "found it to be a great experience." "Upon graduating ACS, I attended Tufts University in Massachusetts for my undergraduate degree in Biology, Georgetown U. for medical school, as well as general surgery training and Texas Heart Institute / Baylor College of Medicine for my cardiothoracic surgery training. I also spent two years in Ohio at the Cleveland Clinic where I performed clinical research and Iconcurrently completed a master’s degree in clinical research at Case Western Reserve University."
