Biography
Since graduating, I finished family practice residency at University of Toronto, where in my final year I became the teaching fellow in Family Practice. Then,I emigrated to the USA and set up a solo FP practice in Phenix City Alabama where my wife(now of 50 years)and I raised our 2 boys to become doctors (FP and Radiology).During the 40 years I have spent here, I have been elected Chief of Staff at 5 local area hospitals, became a Fellow of the American Board of Family Practice and was awarded the title of Associate Professor of Family Medicine at the University of Alabama. After 40 years of practice and >27000 patients, I have retired to peaceful sleeps, no call and spending more time with my beautiful wife.
