MY TEACHERS

I am inspired by my relationships with my grandparents. Each, in their own way, taught me the importance of being healthy. They valued the natural order of things and believed that the body’s inherent desire for a healthful life was to be nurtured, supported and strengthened.

I acknowledge all my professors who have contributed to the body of knowledge that I draw from and am able to pass on to everyone I meet. I have learned that life, like medicine, is an art and though interpretations of how to live may differ, the desire to create a meaningful existence unifies us all.
