As we enter this holiday season, I would like to take a moment to send a heartfelt message to my patients, and to the people who have stood by me with unwavering love and patience.
This year was especially difficult. For the first time since my children were born, my wife Cristal and children Dakota and Nash , did not take a summer vacation. Not once did they ask me why. They understood that I was facing challenges, and they carried that understanding with quiet strength. They never questioned me—only supported me. Every single day, they were there, waiting for me, reminding me how much they love me. I am endlessly grateful for them and deeply humbled by their kindness.
I also want to express my sincere appreciation to my trusted employees and dear friends, whose dedication and loyalty mean more to me than words can say. My heartfelt thanks go to Trudy Trulove, Sandra Guzman, and Ellie Jacobs—your commitment, compassion, and friendship have carried me through more than you know.
To our new team members—Alicia Pollak, Natalie Vargas, Elva Alaniz, Renee Galindo, Stacy Aguilar and Allison Stewart—thank you for joining us with such enthusiasm and heart. Your energy and willingness to grow with us have already made a meaningful difference, and I am truly grateful to have you on this journey
I would also like to take this moment to thank all of my patients who stood by me and continued to trust me, even through times of difficulty and uncertainty.
You stood by me with compassion, love, and respect. You never asked me why or how—only believed in me and moved forward with me. That level of understanding reflects a bond of mutual trust that we have built together over many years. You knew that I would be there for you when you needed me most, just as I knew how deeply honored I was by the trust you placed in me.
It is a true privilege to be chosen as the physician who cares for your heart—the most vital and precious organ in the body. That responsibility is never lost on me. I carry it with humility, dedication, and deep respect for every one of you.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Your loyalty means more to me than words can express. It encourages me to continue on the same path I have always followed—one of compassion, commitment, and unwavering care for you and your families.
To my patients, my family, my colleagues, and my friends—thank you for your trust, your patience, and your love. As we celebrate this season, I wish you peace, health, and hope for the year ahead.
