I read today that we all have to be prepared for the steepest negative impact of premiums, deductibles, co-pays, etc. than we’ve perhaps ever seen. This is not to mention the level of care from healthcare systems, who are feeling pressures. Hang in there everyone! 🙏

Thanks to members who have helped me with a client over the past 5 months. She has really been having difficultly dealing with family members who don’t help with caregiving, but are willing to offer to join in fun activities.

Thank you to “Best in California Magazine” for recognizing me as a top doctor in Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine for 2025. I am very honored to receive this acknowledgment. It’s wonderful to be recognized by your patients and peers for clinical care and patient management.
