Spirituality in Medicine: A Messianic Judaism View Point

My Mom recently challenged me that if I talk about God to my patients, it is unethical. I totally disagree. I don’t proselytize, which we don’t practice in Messianic Judaism.

Medicine: The Business of People and NOT the Business of Money

As a Surgical resident I quickly surmised that the administrators were running medicine, and deciding the faith of physicians.

During my second year of Surgical Residency I devised a plan to create compentency in the…
