I received my family medicine training at the Mount Sinai Family Medicine Program at Jamaica Hospital, where I served as Chief Resident in my final year of training. I am a graduate of the SUNY Stony Brook School of Medicine, and attended college at Cornell University, majoring in biology. I have been studying different diet and exercise systems through books, journal articles, and practical experience since 1993.
However, I don't expect any of you to take my word blindly. Educate yourselves. Read the suggested articles and books on my Recommended Reading section. Do your own research. Always question the rationale and the evidence behind any diet or exercise program you follow.
