Sharing a picture of these cute little guys.  In addition to the porcupines, groundhogs, deer, chipmunks, red squirrels, snapping turtles, frogs, multiple birds, and last week's moose, our street now has a family of raccoons!

Today was my last day practicing as a primary care physician.  I feel so fortunate to have been the PCP to so many wonderful patients for the last 14 years.  You taught me so much.  You helped make me the doctor that I am today.  I am excited to be working full time at UNECOM to pay the gift of Osteopathic Medicine forward by making more doctors!  Thank you from the top and bottom and sideways of my heart.  Say Hello if you see me around.  You are important to me.

People who test themselves know when to self isolate to prevent getting other people sick and that's a good thing.  Stay home and take one for the team.
