What Have We Learned?

What Have We Learned?

by Dr Joe | Dec 14, 2020 | Covid 19, Future Health, Infectious Diseases, Modern Life, Politics

As I write this last column for 2020, the words of the late John Lennon come to mind; “So this is Christmas And what have you done? Another year over A new one just begun” Last week marked the 40th anniversary of his tragic death by homicide.  Where has that time gone...
It Is Written In The Stars

It Is Written In The Stars

by Dr Joe | Nov 16, 2020 | Children's Health, Covid 19, Future Health, Health Care Costs, Medical Tests, Mental Health, Parenting, The Practice of Medicine

Like nearly all of us, I sometimes look at astrological forecasts. At the start of this year nobody predicted a pandemic. Yet, to give credit where due, the prediction was for a year of unusually big upheaval based on a conjunction of Saturn and Pluto. Apparently...
Remember When…

Remember When…

by Dr Joe | Jul 13, 2020 | Future Health, Infectious Diseases, Modern Life, Public Health, The Practice of Medicine

Some weeks it really is hard to know where to start or what to write about – not because there is so little but because there are so many topics worthy of covering. With Christmas only, a week away it is also time to wonder where another year and indeed another decade...
Doctors Need To Be Questioning

Doctors Need To Be Questioning

by Dr Joe | Nov 18, 2019 | Future Health, Public Health, The Practice of Medicine

The selection criteria, has changed a bit over the years but medicine still draws from the most intelligent members of society. However, there are different types of intelligence, so what I am about to say next comes with the obligatory (albeit pathetic) trigger...
Life Is More Than Medicine

Life Is More Than Medicine

by Dr Joe | Sep 9, 2019 | Children's Health, Future Health, Pharmaceuticals, Teenagers, The Practice of Medicine

There is a fantastic quote by Mark Twain which says “To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail”.  To the medical profession, every problem can look like a medical one having a medical solution. Issues may require medical involvement without being medical...
