John David Whitfield, MD

When I was in medical school, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I tried different rotations in basic medicine and pediatrics, and I thought those might be a good fit. Then I did a rotation in Manhattan, NY at Mount Sinai, and it was in physical medicine and rehabilitation. From the minute I did the rotation from the minute I left, everything about the field fit me. I loved the type of people you treated. I loved the holistic approach. I love how you treat a patient as a whole and you are involved with them for years. Everything about it felt right and it was a decision I made that I will never regret.

A good day at work is seeing lots of people get better - getting them home and tucked in with their family, and seeing that everything went well here in the hospital.
