I am a Head and Neck Surgeon in Phoenix, Az. We are seeing an increase incidence in throat cancer in younger people which is due to the HPV virus. In the past throat cancer was mainly due to smoking. People need to be aware that their sexual practices when younger can result in serious problems when they get older. People should be aware of the signs of cancer. Masses in the neck are fairly common and are often the first physical findings of throat cancer.

I have been taking care of people with throat cancer for 20 years. Unfortunately the majority of patients we see already have advanced disease so we need to make people more aware of the disease. It is not publicized like breast cancer but it should be. The diagnosis is very important but the treatments can be very interesting to the general audience. We now use lasers and robototic technology to remove the cancers which can be shown to the audience on video.

Talk about stretch marks and why they are produced on the body. Natural ways or surgical ways to get rid of them, and if the creams advertised actually work.

I first noticed them in my butt and inner thighs, when I had a growth spurt when I was a teenager. I went from a size 0 to a size 2 or 4 over the years. I am currently a size 4-6 now (5'9").

Dear Doctors:

About 20 years ago vegetarianism was considered a fad. Today vegetarian diets are acknowledged by many in society and the American Dietetic Association as one of the healthiest diets for humans. Research also indicates a vegetarian diet helps in prevention and treatment of many dieases. Viewing the effects of eating meat, it is estimated that 30 to 60 billion dollars a year is spent on medical cost in the United States, treating hypertension, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity.
Based on scientific research a diet of fruits, nuts, vegetables, and whole grains along with physical exercise is associated with lowering chances of high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, strokes, and mortality. That's why the "North American Vegetarian Society" has designated October as "National Vegetarian Awareness Month", the month is kicked off on October 1st as "World Vegetarian Day".
I am Kurt E. Smith the owner and founder of Totally Vegetarian Catering Inc. & Veggie Chefs, I was raised as a vegetarian, and I attended the "Natural Gourmet Institue For Health and Culinary Arts" in New York City, where I studied a theoretical approach, using whole grains, beans, nuts, natural proteins, and vegetables to facilitate proper digestion, strengthen the immune system, and help prevent diseases.
Over the past eight years, I've traveled around the country cooking for various celebrities, and I've been featured on local TV networks in the Greater Philadelphia Region NBC10 and CBS3, cooking, promoting, and discussing the vegetarian/vegan way of life. There 11.9 million Americans who are interested in following a vegetarian diet in the future, your audience and viewers would benefit greatly from me presenting a delicious, educational vegetarian segment on your show during the month of October, to bring about awareness for National Vegetarian Month. Thank you for your consideration!

Sincerely,

Kurt E. Smith

Unfortunately addiction/impaired mental health runs rampant among the medical community whether it is alcohol/drugs/psychiatric issues.

Fortunately, there is help for those across the United States that suffer from this. That help mostly comes from peer assistance programs with each states licensing board that keep them from losing their license and remain anonymous to their board if they are following the program set up for them.
