My talent and joy:      

Solving complex problems

The Problem:

Our healthcare system treats people in a segmented way that misses the larger picture of human resilience and capacity for change. 

The Result:

If a person doesn't respond as expected one or more of these things happens: 

1. Blame the patient for not getting better

2. Tell the patient they will be OK if  they give up a piece of their function (squatting, throwing a ball, running)

3.  Tell the patient they need to cope with pain better.

My mission:

Restore hope and function, remove artificial limits.
