Maternl, my personal website, recognizes and addresses as its overlying mission the care, attention and empathies required when parents experience the loss of a child through miscarriages, stillbirths and neonatal deaths. Furthermore, Maternl stives to be a paradigm for the care and healing for all patients when we cannot cure; the ultimate challenge to the bond between patient and doctor.
Maternl reflects my career as a physician, an obstetrician, and introduces my personal philosophy and original poetry which above all enables me to ask why even when we already understand how. Poetry permits me as a doctor of medicine, witness to the frailties of our humanity, to abet healing through the very core of what makes us human; our language and our personal emotions.
I believes that we who have taken the "Oath" to practice our sacred profession of medicine and we who have committed ourselves to the healing
arts must do so with the imperative to respect the sanctity of health for all those we treat - with a sense of high privilege-for they are the
flesh and blood and souls of our humanity - past, present and future - and we, by our choice, their guardians. I, through my writings, poems,
personal thoughts and unique programs strive to promote these tenets.
