There have been many DOs who have served as physician to our presidents and vice presidents. Perhaps it would be good to list them all and perhaps put this out to the press as PR about our profession. That there have been a number of DOs providing health care to the most powerful men in the world is note worthy. Mar. 14, 2025, at 1:03 pm Reply
