1001. A Neurosurgeon Dedicated to His Craft and the Bravery of His Patients

Dr. Paul Kaloostian is a Los Angeles neurosurgeon who, aside from saving lives every day, is an avid writer. He wishes to improve the importance of building compassionate relationships between doctors and patients, something he feels is too often lost nowadays. His main goal is to break the stigma that doctors are rigid, book smart people who lack a creative and artistic side. He wrote a poetry book with case studies to share with people in order to show that doctors are not all about science.
