At the ripe old age of 85 he has spent his career learning from some of the greats in osteopathic medicine. He learned the principles of functional positional release from George Laughlin, D.O. the grandson of AT Still. He learned the muscle energy technique from the founder, Fred Mitchell Sr. In 1968 he took over a prominent osteopathic physician’s practice in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Perrin T. Wilson, D.O.  who treated the Rockefeller family and taught Dr. Stiles HVLA. We thank him for helping to develop the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes for OMT and inspiring the next generation of osteopathic physicians at Pikeville College of Osteopathic medicine. At 85 he continues teaching and treating patients. Thank you for being an example and inspiration of living an osteopathic life.
