There has been a virtual feeding frenzy among the Democratic Concord lawyers who each claim the Executive Council seat in District 2 as their own.
It’s only fitting that this was going on during Shark Week. Each claims that because of their vast health care experience, mostly limited to medical malpractice and personal liability law, they are the one to vote for during these trying times. They recognize that a health care professional is needed on the council.
This reminds me of a doctor I once knew who treated many of the golfers on the PGA tour. He loved the game of golf. Unfortunately, he couldn’t sink a three-foot putt into a manhole (or is that a person hole these days in deference to the Democratic thought police?).
The candidates at least understand that even during normal times, health care is one of the largest budget items considered before the council. During COVID, health care experience is essential.
As a physician with decades of experience in patient care and medical leadership, one who has managed multimillion dollar budgets and prepared for public health crises such as Ebola, I am the only candidate who can bring legitimate health care experience to the council.
I understand that every contract coming before the council isn’t only about money. It’s about the effects the contract will have on the lives of the citizens of New Hampshire. To get the most value, elect Dr. Stewart Levenson.
Keep the Concord lawyers chasing ambulances and not taking care of patients in the back of them. Or better yet let them try their luck on the golf course where lives are not at stake.
