February 8, 2012 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minutes

I had lunch with a colleague who is finishing his MBA in May.

October 20, 2011 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: 2 minutes

July 1, 2011 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minutes

It's July 1st, a time of year when third year American medical students take the step from auditorium to clinic.  It's a time of sorting out.  Every medical school deals with their share of students appearing on clinical clerkships showcasing their unique brand of personal expression.  Meetings ensue.  The argument is always the same: 'I can be a good doctor with ...
