Dr. Hadi Akl

Cosmetic dentist, founder of one of Lebanon's leading cosmetic dentistry practices

Dr. Hadi Akl is a cosmetic dentist who built one of Lebanon's leading practices while living through the country's hardest years. Outside the clinic he has spent thirty-three days on Survivor and climbed Kilimanjaro and Elbrus, the latter in minus thirty-one degrees alongside his son. He talks about endurance as a mental discipline first, and about what extreme environments reveal that ordinary life keeps hidden.
