Continuing a Legacy
“ I’ve always know that I wanted to be a physician. It’s quite possible that the idea was planted by my father, an OB-GYN. He seemed to experience a great deal of satisfaction in his job and that coupled with y love of math and cience made medicince the logical choice. The decision to enter Physical Medicince and Rehabilitation was also a family decision. My wife and I both completed residency’s in the field because of our interest in the rehabilitative process related to injury and or aging. It’s a field where science, anatomy, psychology and physiology mesh to create the best outcome for the patient through appropriate diagnosis and treatment protocols. Helping people get out of pain and back to enjoy their family and life is gratifying. Everyday you get to see how you can make a difference in one’s quality of life”
