Kevin decided to enter family medicine after his experiences working as a paramedic in Portland, Oregon and Ann Arbor, Michigan early in his career. It was in this prehospital setting that he saw the significant impact that health disparities, unequal access to care and untreated chronic diseases had on the everyday lives of patients. Family medicine seemed a perfect venue to address these issues by caring for the whole person, at any age, regardless of their barriers to care.
