Sad news: fellow dermatologist Dr. Fredric Brandt just passed away yesterday.
Humor is a wonderful opportunity for release, but when a specific human person bears the brunt of the joke in the public world they exist in, it can be devastating. As a physician who chose the path of Holistic Dermatology decades ago, I am sensitive to how ridicule can affect a person. My heart goes out to the soul of Dr. Brandt, to those who loved him, and to all those whose lives were better from his touch.
I'm reminded how important it is to be caring, continually return our efforts to cultivate beauty from the inside out.
Dr. Alan M Dattner, MD
