Doctor talking:
Both my older brother and I, when we were little, I had an uncle who was, uh, truly an inspirational person, he was a pediatrician, and from as early as I can remember, he, uh, he would take us with him when he would do house calls. And uh, that experience, having seen someone who was such a kind, caring person and how much good he did and the gratification it gave him I think it inspired both my brother and I to become physicians.
Orthopaedic surgery on screen:

Palos Medical Group on screen:
When someone has the misfortune of having to see us it’s usually because something bad has befallen them--either they’ve gotten an injury, either on the job or in sports or just everyday living or and through the course of their life they’ve developed, uh, some wear and tear problems like arthritis. So when they have musculoskeletal problems or bone and joint problems is when they come to see us.
