Farewell Letter

My year as President went by very quickly.  I truly enjoyed the opportunity to serve the Lehigh County Medical Society and I have continued to participate on the Board.  In this essay, I say goodbye and I thank the Board and all of the members for their tremendous support.

I don’t know what the future of medicine will be, but it is my hope that in some small way I have encouraged young physicians to take on similar leadership roles and to help our colleagues and our patients face the challenges ahead.
