Nurse practitioner Bob Hobbs almost had his practiced closed to patients, because the doctor who gave him permission to write scripts was leaving the state, and he could not find another…

You think to yourself what happened before there was a hospital to ever run to or doctors or nurses to take care of the sick? I personally would believe everyone just took a slow painful death. The first hospital in the nation founded in Philadelphia in 1751, although most did not recognize this as a hospital as we know today. Eventually after one century passed by the public addressed the hospitals as a safe environment soon after the Civil War reached a high level of appreciation for all…

When we are ill, we trust our General Practitioners to provide the best treatment available. Doctors take care of all our general healthcare needs.

Having tutored and being teachers’ assistant for different groups of college students for more than three years, a career in teaching posted less of a challenge for me to overcome. Because most of my students were refugees and non-native English speakers, I did have to innovate daily on how to communicate and endow my knowledge to students. That being said, my…
