About

I am the founder and Publisher of Physician Outlook Magazine, a national publication FOR physicians, BY physicians.

It takes a lot to change the future of medicine, but every day is a new opportunity to try.

I am a fiercely independent doctor focusing on the sanctity of the physician-patient relationship, and exposing the many middlemen that have wormed their way into the exam room.

For my “day job(s)” I work at Saint Bonaventure University as the Medical Director for the Center for Student Wellness, and I also see patients virtually via Blueberry Pediatrics and through UberDoc. When I am off during summers, weekends and holidays I also work as a locum pediatrician all over the country.
