Tell Me How That Makes You Feel

About Me

I am a medical doctor and psychiatrist with a practice in northern New Jersey.

My job is to coax them along in their journey of self-discovery. Layout made by

My Interests

An enigma of sorts, on one hand I enjoy the opera, ballet and classical music, and on the other hand, I enjoy the more popular music.
Family dinners are important, as is my college age son. I rarely date because my work often takes precedence in keeping me busy.

I'd like to meet:

Madame Curie, Sigmund Freud, Ernest Hemingway, Mother Theresa, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Tony Bennett .. among others

Music:

Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Johnny Mathis, Harry Connick, Jr., Dean Martin, Jerry Vale, The Three Tenors, The Carpenters, The Captain & Tenille, The Beatles ...

Movies:

I like musicals, The Sound of Music, South Pacific, Rent, anything Broadway

Television:

Sue Johnson is interesting, I watch Fox News, History Channel, Discover Channel, A&E, HBO ... ...
....

Books:

I enjoy the classics as well as modern fiction.

Heroes:

Simple .. those I admire most are those who work hard and do their best on a daily basis. Position, post, caste, class are of no consequence in comparison to ability and desire to be a viable part of society. Make a difference!
