I practice in…”an entertainmnet capital” and take care of a number of famous or “high end” performers. Its an interesting portion of my practice, and I have been summoned to hotel rooms with bodyguards shadowing me several times.

What I am struck by is the utter normalcy and niceness of the folks whose yearly incomes could buy my house a hundred times over. I have not met any mean-spirited or holier-than-thou type of celebrities, and when a human being is in need, it doesn’t matter how famous or rich that person is–he or she is just as scared about something wrong with the body as any of the rest of us.
