Family
I have an identical twin brother and a younger sister. We once switched our last class of the day in high school. The teachers had no clue. Our sister is seven years younger and when we were kids she always wanted to hang out with her big brothers and friends. We always said no. Now she is the coolest sibling and we have to beg to hang out with her. Things surely do change.
I am married with two little girls and yes another girl on the way. Even our cat is a girl. Four women and me, there is no way I am at a disadvantage. Right?
My wife and I have been married for over 10 great years. It’s hard to make her laugh but when I do, she usually laughs so hard that she starts tearing. Our older daughter is just like me in her behavior while the younger is more like my wife. No matter how hard I resist I can’t say no to them. They get that charm from their mother. As one can imagine, all they have to do is bat their eyelashes and they are basically getting what they want.
Fun Facts
I started playing racquetball in medical school and within 6 months started playing in tournaments. I even have a few trophies. I even played a few matches with one of the top ranked players in the pro circuit. I didn’t score a point on him but it’s not everyday you say you got to play one of the best in the world.
I learned to speak fluent Swedish in 8 months. It was very difficult but now my kids can’t say anything about me without me understanding them. The struggles were well worth it.
As a young child I really liked to draw pictures. I would sometimes draw for hours on the weekend. My mother recently told me that she kept a lot is my artwork from those days to show to my kids sometime.
Favorite Things
One of my favorite things now is to watch and play basketball. It’s great cardio even though my friends laugh that I am the only person on the court wearing protective goggles. Now all I need is a mouth guard, knee brace, ankle brace and finger tape. With those accessories who wouldn’t want me on their team.

Very nice- have to say, he kept me calm.
He was very clear in his explanations, answered my questions clearly and most of all, was very patient and did not seem like he needed to rush off to another patient!
Nice and great doctor !
Excellent Dr. Would recommend him to friends and relatives.

Dr Kai 🥊 rocks
Excellent Doctor. He explained everything in simple words. He cares about language barriers, bringing his Spanish speaking assistant to make sure my mom understands her eyes condition. Thanks!!!
I have used him before and he will be doing my cataract surgery...he is a nice guy and knows his profession.
