For twenty three years I took
emergency calls days, nights and weekends, including all the
holidays. I can no longer function during my normal work days when
I have been in the clinic from 2 to 5 AM with an emergency. We are
fortunate in the metropolitan areas of the US nowadays to have full
time emergency clinics. I still stay on call for all medical and
surgical cases which I am currently involved with. Those of you in
this category were told in the clinic how to reach me.
