Bent Tree Family Physicians

Ready for some good healthcare news?
I still love Family Medicine.
The brilliant man in this photo is my college math professor, Dr. Boldt.
He has been my patient for 36 years.

He taught me Calculus in 1976.
I must have been a good student because he chose me as his personal physician as soon as I opened my office.

Primary care is a journey, not a destination. It’s about taking a path of life together, through ups and downs, preventing some things and persevering through the others.

Over a dozen of my college professors have honored me by becoming my patients. There’s something special about giving back to those who made my career possible.

How many people get the chance to say “Thanks” with acts of service?
Family physicians do that every day.

Family Medicine hasn’t been all of the things that I’d hoped for, but in many ways, this career has exceeded my wildest dreams.

Each joy in my career has had a person attached to it. Amazing people that have been appreciative, supportive, and forgiving.

Many patients are the children and grandchildren of my earliest. My most tolerant patients, thankfully, have stuck around to approach our 4th decade together. We’ve learned a lot about each other during the decades.

The best journeys are usually the unpredictable ones. That’s one good thing I can say about Family Medicine. My days are marvelously unpredictable.

By the way, the truth is that I wasn’t a very good math student, but Dr. Boldt saw something in me that he liked. I owe him for that and hope to have a few more decades to say “Thanks”.

Here’s a friend that knows what it takes to win a Super Bowl!

Overcome adversity. Overcome injuries.
Overcome bad decisions and bad luck.
Overcome bad press and haters.

Know yourself, believe in yourself, and keep working! Keep pushing! Don’t stop!
There is only way to win.
Earn it!
