Welcome! Glad you’re here. As a physician who has practiced emergency medicine for 25 years and a science journalist, my goal at this site is to share some of our current knowledge related to COVID-19, along with thoughts on other timely and important medical topics. Feel free to browse and enjoy as many articles as you like.
I hope you’ll consider ordering my book, Runaway Medicine: What You Don’t Know May Kill You. Named an Amazon #1 Hot New Release in Health Care Administration upon its release, this is a deeply personal look at how unnecessary procedures and treatments cost you money without improving your life — but make fortunes for the health industry and Big Pharma. Simply put, our healthcare system is broken — we overspend and underdeliver. Based on my experience as both a physician and a patient, Runaway Medicine will have you asking more questions and getting the answers you deserve.
Thanks for stopping by. Take good care and be safe!
