Students and physicians are invited to kickoff Primary Care Week with our special keynote speaker!

Dr. David Loxtercamp is a rural family physician from Belfast, Maine. He is the author of the book, "A Measure of My Days: The Journal of a Country Doctor," which chronicles his life as a family medicine doctor and his interactions with his patients. Dr. Loxtercamp will speak about the significance of being a primary care physician in a rural area, the importance of listening to and telling patient stories, and the role of writing in his career as a physician.

NPR did an interview with Dr. Loxtercamp earlier this year. You can find the interview and transcript here.
