BIO:

I believe good medicine and great health come only from a deep understanding of people, data, and science.

I am a doctor who takes his craft seriously and has built the model family office for health and medicine in the United States. I read, write and speak on healthcare innovation in the spirit of advancing & enhancing the experience people, both doctors and patients, have while traversing Fortress healthcare.

Not afraid to be wrong if it moves the ball forward. Working on solving social problems; not predicting them. Interested in getting it right; not being right.

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
