yes also 71.- my dad was a pediatrician who did house calls and traded with the local farmers for bags of Potatoes, tomatoes etc.
he talked a lot about preventive medicine which I think, knowing him, was about avoiding sugar and candy and eating more whole foods, not prepared ones and no chemicals added.. and less tv, more exercise, drinking water, instead of soda, etc.
Doc Gamm tended to my dad when he got chewed up by a chain saw, delivered all 6 of us kids and stitched up our family as needed. Small village in MN. Nobody had a choice, really. Thank God, he was a good Doc.
Did we even have pediatricians back then (i'm 71).? I only recall seeing the same Dr my parents' did.

Yes! I never went because I would never complain and would try to hide any illness from my mom so I wouldn't have to go!
