These are missions statements I wrote on 12 October 2015. My goals remain much the same.

I want to teach people to question their healthcare choices.

How to make simple, effective decisions about how to improve their lives.

I want people to feel in control and to seek expertise when needed.

I don’t want to feel victim to my providers or over-abundant information.

I want people to educate themselves and their families and friends.

I want you to feel comfortable when trying something new.

I want services to be transparent, a la carte, and free from insurance.

I want providers engaged and to feel valued and patients to share respect.

I want providers to learn willingly [and deeply] about patients; for providers to benefit individually and professionally.
