Dr. Weeks’ Comment: I trained at Harvard’s Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) doing research in mineral metabolism and vitamin D metabolism and then at University of Vermont College of Medicine where we were extremely fortunate to have wise, old-time country docs teaching us physical examination skills. George Wolf, Alan Tisdale, Larry Weed – these gentlemen were giants in their fields and I count my blessing for their tutelage every time I examine a patient. Now a Stanford professor, Dr. Abraham Verghese originally from a low tech province in Africa is reviving the art of the physical exam.
