When I was in sixth grade, my father’s company did interest, aptitude and IQ testing for all of the employees children. My test showed that I had three separate interests: Physician, Social Work and Forest Ranger. Well, I have done 2 out of the three and frequently tease my husband that Forest Ranger is next. I love [...]
Summer is arriving momentarily and many of you are increasing your activities. We have all been cooped up for way too long and are excited about golf and kayaking and hiking and cycling and softball and tennis and running and all the other outdoor activities we love to enjoy!

Now that it has finally stopped raining we can get back in the garden. Some of you love it and some of you hate it but it is one of the best things you can do for your health. Several years ago a patient asked me to speak to her garden club. (And if any of you [...]
Several of us at the office and some of our patients have seen miracles with our allergy system. My own story is dramatic. I was severely allergic to tree pollen, cats, ragweed, melons, pineapple, and banana. I lived in air conditioning- afraid to open windows; avoided cats like the plague and could no longer enjoy some of [...]
