Physician Spotlight: Dr. Arland Adams
Arland Adams understands the problems and empathizes with many of the symptoms of the patients in his internal medicine practice, which is limited to a geriatric population.
He speaks their language — it’s his own age group.
Now 80, Adams is in his office every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, attending to his patients, who are also his contemporaries.
