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.

Thanks for selecting my photo, Cancer Research UK (@CR_UK), to illustrate this piece on the health effects of artificial sweeteners (hint, they are not positive, more info below).

Thank you for using my photo to illustrate this story, @GayTimesMag These are the things that happen in the most inclusive city in the 🌎, the protection of human beings to live in their true identities. It’s what I came to health care to help people do. I continue to love this century 🙂 New …

Thank you for publishing my photograph, @ShoutOutJMU, the James Madison University feminist blog. I support voices from the future, especially ones who say: The wording of the policy is shotty, to say the least. Certain transgender folk are able to serve in the military if they are at least three years “stable” after starting hormones …
Thanks for publishing my photograph of the 2017 Women’s March, @TheNation. Social movements are never easy, nor do they follow a clear trajectory.

Here’s a good quote describing the ongoing dissonance and tension between the last century and this one:
It is interesting that the ADA recommends eating starches and sugars and then the simultaneous use of acarbose to prevent their digestion.
