Epilogue: One Job.

Abstract

In this article I reflect on almost 40 years of clinical practice. I remember the first day like it was yesterday, and I remember the last day, but the in between represents my soul, a soul that has been shaped by countless experiences. Some of these experiences were immediately impactful and left an indelible mark on my soul, but most of them were memorable only for a fleeting moment, soon to be forgotten. Yet the cumulation of these seemingly trivial experiences, in retrospect, served as the foundation of my career at Kaiser Permanente.
