Medical Pursuits

This is foundational in his pursuit of excellence, innovation, and solving complex problems.

Mic’s favorite quote:
“Try not to become a man of success, but rather of value. He is considered successful in our day who gets more out of life than he puts in. But a man of value will give more than he receives.”
