First and foremost, I want to thank my family, Mom, Dad and Raj, for their undying love and support. I couldn’t have done this without them!

I want to thank my parents for being such amazing role models. This adventure pales in comparison to theirs which included traveling halfway around the world, navigating a new culture, and living the American dream; they brought with them their education and the shirts on their backs. I am grateful for their vision, their tenacity and their strength. It’s a lot easier to do something when you have seen it done.

I want to thank my brother for inspiring me to follow my Inner Voice; he's been "breaking trail" since the day he was born.

Mom, Dad and Raj, you continue to be a source of inspiration and are the solid foundation on which I stand: it is because of your love and support that I can take great leaps of faith…and I am so grateful.

I want to thank Pediatric Associates in Seattle. Pediatric Associates is easily one of the best run practices in the country, with over 40 pediatricians in 6 locations, this is no easy feat! I have learned from then how a large organization can be run and it has inspired me to try and become a “satellite” clinic in spirit.

The outpouring of support from everyone in the organization has been truly heart warming, and appreciated. I want to specifically thank Marina, Glenn, Bill, Randy, Rob, Stu , James, Andrea, Jeanine, Kelly, Teresa, Teri and Sheryl for their support. I would like to send out a general "thank you" to everyone else who have answered all of my random questions and have helped out in more ways than can be counted. I am forever indebted.

I must also thank Pediatric Associates of Canon City, specifically Roger Noland and Dr. Ellen McCormick. Thank you for having faith in me and for your tremendous support. I look forward to working together. I take great comfort in knowing that you are by my side in this endeavor.

I want to also thank new local and and non-local friends for both their personal and professional support:
