"National Doctor’s Day" — Ernie Anastos
March 30th was National Doctors Day, a day to honor physicians for the extraordinary work they do in helping their patients. We celebrate their enormous contributions to society and to the community. John Steever, MD, assistant professor of pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and director of special programs at the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center, represents so many physicians who are doing amazing work out there. “I think we do some great work at the Adolescent Health Center. I work with some great colleagues who are completely dedicated to providing healthcare to about ten thousand teenagers a year. We are busy and love what we do,” said Dr. Steever. “We provide primary care, reproductive healthcare, and we do a lot of work with transgender youth in our clinics,” Dr. Steever added. This program at Mount Sinai has become a model for the United States and also for the rest of the world.
