Welcome to my new and improved blog site. The post “Batman” will get you started with a funny personal story on how nature and a health care “system” conspired to almost kill me. That led to an introspective period and I ended up writing a bunch of short pieces on various aspects of health and health care that might be helpful to the average healthcare “consumer.” Everything here is my own opinion and not of any of my various employers or colleagues unless specifically stated. Credit and references are given when possible. If you see something I’ve plagiarized or not given credit for please alert me! Comments are welcome and appreciated.
Thanks
