The fight against disease is both a science and an art. Knowledge of the human body, diseases, and medications is the key to fighting disease. But the essence of the medical art is practiced through interaction with patients who seek a doctor who is thorough, well-informed, and sound in their reasoning—but who is also deeply warm and compassionate.
