"O.k. Now go ahead and let's turn. Can you? Well, let's see. Back yourself up. Good, good and come on. Keep coming. I think, I became a physician because I saw the joy that it brought to my father and my grandfather. I really don't know, if you can get a better job. Than helping other human beings who are suffering. And helping them to alleviate their suffering. My path is, is really a neat one. My grandfather was a primary care physician, back before antibiotics were available. My father's a surgeon. I have several cousins who are physicians. And I particularly, got interested in rehabilitation medicine. Because I have a brother, who has a head injury. And I saw, at his bed side. The impact that a physician made in his life. And thought, I want to be like that person. You know, in my particular case, coming from a family of physicians. I fought it, for a while. I think, it was a calling for a long time. But I started college, actually majoring in Accounting. And after that, in my first year of college. I realized that, that was not doing it for me. So I switched over to my pre-med studies. And I've been really happy with my decision, ever since. I wanted to be one of those people, that does special effects for Star Wars."
