Dr. Rob

Hi!  I am Dr. Rob.

I am a primary care physician from the Southeastern United States.  Yes, I am a real doctor.  Here are some other facts about me:

  • I am a father of four children.
  • I am board certified in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics.
  • I am bad at bowling, but would like to be better.
  • I have lived in New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Georgia.
  • I don’t like mushrooms.  They are just too slimy for me.
  • I play multiple musical instruments, including Piano, Cello, and Guitar.
  • I started college as a voice major.
  • I am an early adopter of Electronic Medical Records and have been awarded for our implementation of them in our practice.  I have given talks about this subject across the country.
  • I don’t have psychic powers - I am not that Doctor Rob.
  • I have been diagnosed with ADHD.  My staff agrees with this diagnosis.
  • I don’t like to write about politics.  It just gives me the heebie-jeebies.
  • I recently had my gallbladder out.  It wasn’t that bad, but the scars kind of look like bugs.
  • Llamas and goats have mysteriously become an important part of my blog.  I am not sure who invited them, but they keep showing up.
  • I accidentally deleted this page, so had to rewrite it.  I do stuff like that sometimes.  Still, I think I am a pretty good doc.  I have never deleted a patient by mistake.
  • My feet are size 10.5
  • I am the recipient of far more grace than I deserve.
  • I have very little patience for those pesky muskrats.

So sit back and enjoy the blog.  I hope you grow from the experience.  I know I haven’t.

Welcome

Welcome to my blog. I am a practicing primary care physician in the Southeastern US, caring for patients of all ages (Board Certified in both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics). This blog covers a wide variety of issues, including the following: What it is like to be a physician, dogs driving cars, what troubles are in our system, toddlers with flame-throwers, what would it take to fix that system, llamas, death and dying issues, mutants, and accordions. Maybe I need to write about mutant dying accordions with flame-throwers. Hmmm....I feel a post coming. Anyhow, I like variety. Life is always lived with both laughter and tears. If you are a regular reader of this blog, it is also filled with nausea and nightmares. Thanks for stopping by. -Dr. Rob
