I am a physician, a family medicine specialist with a focus on total health, diversity, and Washington, DC.
In 2007, I decided to relocate to our nation’s capital, from Seattle, Washington, to further my interests while continuing to live in the future. I believe in open leadership, sharing, and freedom from conflict of interest.
More detail, including my official bio, is on the Portfolio page.
I actually thought this was the more significant of the two talks that Andrew Mente, PhD (@andrewmente) gave at Low Carb Breckenridge (#lcb18) – The other one on saturated fat (see: Just Watched (again): Andrew Mente, PhD – “Current advice to limit total fat to less than 30%E and saturated fat to less than 10%E …
Thanks (again) for publishing my photographs, @ggwash. Isn’t Washington, DC beautiful? We came here to help the 🌎 learn to ❤️ better, which it ultimately is. #LoveAlwaysWins Our Greater and Lesser Washington Flickr pool contributors were out in force at Pride last weekend! Here are some of our favorite rainbow-themed images to brighten up your …
Thank you for publishing my photograph, @DCist, and for being back in service. Noting that the go-to image for gentrification is the Whole Foods store on H Street NE. I would say that’s an in-the-know selection for several reasons. I wrote about what’s happening on H-Street previously (see: Photo Friday: Healing H Street, NE with …
Thanks for publishing my photograph, @Washingtonian magazine, in this piece written by Alan Neuhauser and Elliot Williams (@ecwilliams30). Once in a while, I take note of the photo that’s chosen (which is the choice of the publication, they don’t need to consult me, and I don’t require it), and suggest a better one, and that’s …
This week’s photograph was taken at Washington, DC’s Dupont Circle, on the occasion of the 2 year anniversary of the murder of 49 people at the Orlando Pulse nightclub. I still occasionally meet people who preach equality but tolerate queerphobia. We’ve seen those results, and they’re not the ones compatible with the future. I wrote …
Thank you for publishing my photograph, @DCist, and welcome back from extinction. We’re happy to have you. The photograph is of this week’s vigil remembering the murder of 49 people at the Orlando Pulse nightclub. Remember.

I always read the commentary attached to my photos, and although I would normally terminate the license to use my photo in connection to a piece that espouses violent views against other human beings, I’m not going to this time. Why? Because what they are saying is what we already know – #LoveAlwaysWins. Enjoy the …
I was recently asked about the influences on physicians in the counseling and advocating of nutritional approaches. People believe physicians have complete autonomy in fitting nutritional guidance to the needs of the patient. So, for example, if they wish to support approaches such as carbohydrate restriction for people with insulin resistance, they are free to …
Thank you to @TroyeSivan for bringing all of yourself to Capital Pride (@CapitalPrideDC) and to your life. All you need to be is yourself. All photos @CreativeCommons licensed as usual. You can access them here as well. Enjoy.
It was a great honor to be part of this year’s media team for Washington, DC’s Capital Pride (@CapitalPrideDC) – capturing images of the people and places that I love the most. This series is of headliner Alessia Cara (@alessiacara). She’s a supreme talent and significantly adds to the beauty of Washington, DC through her …
I’ll be posting a lot of photographs in the next few days, of the people and places in Washington, DC’s annual Capital Pride (@CapitalPrideDC) celebration. It’s a truth for me that there is nowhere else in the United States for me where the camera is out. In every other city, it sits in my bag, …

Did you ever spend time in a room full of citizens taking control of their health and life destinies? Did you ever do it at a Continuing Medical Education event? – 2018.03.04 Low Carb Breckenridge, Breckenridge, CO USA 2-3 (View on Flickr.com)

Removing the right to use my photography (no thank you!), because it’s not what you preach, it’s what you tolerate, and I don’t have to tolerate transphobia

I am now getting ready for @Ketofest 2018, aka what happens when an entire town is converted to a #DiabtesReversal #MetabolicHealth lifestyle. Plus I need to increase my library of #LCHF dishes
I have one more paper I’d like to read to complete a series I wrote about regarding non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
There’s a paper I’ve read about NAFLD whose conclusions and scientific approach I seriously question, just checking my suspicions out with other physicians before I a review.
It’s this one – Zelber-Sagi S, Ivancovsky-Wajcman D, Fliss Isakov N, Webb M, Orenstein D, Shibolet O, et al. High red and processed meat consumption is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and insulin resistance.

Speaking of the future, I’m always ready to capture it unfolding:
