After graduating from Cornell, A.B., and the Downstate Medical Centre, New York with an M.D., I interned at UCLA in Los Angeles. Served in the US Air Force as an active duty medical officer in Asia, and returned to a Pediatric Residency at UCLA. After joining the faculty of the Dept. of Pediatrics, I achieved an M.P.H with a special interest in tropical Medicine. After serving for a few years in Asia doing Public Health, I migrated to Canada and did General Practice, first in the Nelson area and then a more rural practice in Rock Creek B.C. On moving to Ontario, I evolved from a general practice to a special interest in Psychotherapy and have a continuing practice in downtown Toronto. I have taken sabbaticals to work with two companies in internet related areas. I was a peer assessor for the College of Physicians and Surgeons for 8 years and then was elected to the College's Council, where I served for 12years as well as serving as a non-council Chair of the Discipline Committee for 3 years. I was elected President of the CPSO in 2013-2014. I chaired the Professional Obligations and Human Rights Policy group, and was a member of the MAID policy group. I have been concentrating on assessments of folk requesting MAiD. Profoundly meaningful work. I have now retired from medical practice, but Remain available to health professionals for confidential consultations (at reasonable fees) on their regulatory issues to complement received legal advice.as well I am available to families who need to discuss MAID issues prior to deciding if they should request an assessment.
