The fight against disease is both a science and an art. Knowledge of the human body, diseases, and medications is the key to fighting disease. But the essence of the medical art is practiced through interaction with patients who seek a doctor who is thorough, with solid knowledge and sound reasoning, but also deeply warm and compassionate.
