Eleven years of training…..
.......that’s four years of College,……four years of Medical School,……three years of Residency…..that’s what it takes to put two letters after your name- M.D.
Often I’m asked, out of all of that, what was the most important class that you ever took?
My answer…Black Angus Steakhouse in Kalida.
When I was 15 years old, I got my very first job,…..bussing tables at Black Angus in Kalida.
There, I learned a lot about people…..from working with others, to dealing with complaints, to powering through busy nights, to dealing with problems that came up, and…..to respecting the people you work with to do it……ALL of them.
Trust me, I use more of what I learned at Black Angus EVERYDAY than the sum total of all of the Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology, and Chemistry that I took in College,……combined.
Yesterday, I got a lesson in what Corporate medicine has become. No matter what you do, there are always some who feel people aren’t that important.
It’s a strange world to me, because I’ve worked very hard at this office to create a bubble where,……the individual people still mean…..EVERYTHING.
Every staff member at my office means EVERYTHING TO ME,……..Every patient of our practice means EVERYTHING TO ME……..and ALL of the people who cast a vote for our office………MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME.
No corporate medicine here,......maybe a little more like the old Black Angus Steakhouse.
To you all,.........Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!
Great job, Kalida Medical Arts,
