We must accept human error as inevitable - and design around that fact.

Traditional medical ethics, based on the doctor-patient relationship must be changed... The primary function of health care regulations should be to limit an individuals own decision-making!

It is, I guess, politically correct, widely believed, that to say that American health care is the best in the world. It's not.

I think health care is more about love than about most other things. If there isn't at the core of this two human beings who have agreed to be in a relationship where one is trying to help relieve the suffering of another, which is love, you can't get to the right answer here.

Right now, we are doing it blindly.

We are guests in our patients' lives.

As a doctor, an educator, an innovator and someone who has dedicated his professional career to making things work better and to helping people – I am ready to lead.
