“Steven Soloway is a gregarious, compassionate, passionate, lust-for-life, renaissance-man, ‘teddy-bear’ of a doctor with a great desire for medical and, more importantly, clinical knowledge. His search for this knowledge is not for knowledge‘s sake, but to be the best doctor he can be for his patients, and his friends, and family. He is not afraid to state that he is the best, and he certainly is one of the best in the world! He brings his brand of brutal honesty to the world of healthcare. I say ‘brutal’ because he knows what he knows, and more importantly, he knows what he does not know and is not afraid to say it. Enjoy the read, but honor the author and become an advocate of change to truly make this healthcare system of ours again the envy of the world.”
—J. Colombo, PhD, DNM, DHS, CTO & Senior Medical Director, Physio PS, Inc.
