SEA KAYAKING IN ALASKA, PRINCE WLLIAM SOUND AND BEYOND
His first Public Health Service assignment was on the Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea, followed by 16 years at the Southeast Alaska Regional Center for Health in Juneau. Since the 1990s he has practiced family medicine in Homer and has recently retired. Ever the consummate outdoorsman, he fishes, hunts, mountain bikes, hikes and sea kayaks.
Public Health Service helped finance his medical education; he is somewhat the model for Joel of Northern Exposure tv series fame and was interviewed by their script writers. He has recently reprised his trip to Prince William Sound and will share those photos, and likely many more from his Alaskan adventures.
