It’s one of the top problems we hear about from our members at OCMA, and one that we can help you fix through our Business Partner Universal Financial Systems.

Specialty: Pediatrics What is the most rewarding thing about practicing medicine? The relationships I’ve been able to build with my patients and their families is extremely rewarding – it’s the best thing about practicing medicine for me. As a pediatrician, I’m able to take a special part in “raising" the children who have seen me since birth – watching their development and seeing them transition into adulthood is the best gift. Why did you choose to practice in Orange County? Besides the great weather, I chose Orange County because it’s home for me and my family, which always comes first for me. It’s also a great benefit to be surrounded by reputable academic institutions and hospitals. I feel blessed to be part of a health system and medical group that takes such great care of me and my patients. What’s a great experience you had through your OCMA Membership? I really appreciate the various advocacy efforts from OCMA – championing important issues for our medical community. I also really enjoy the various lectures and workshops available to help me keep up with clinical decision-making and practice management. Do you have a message for the rest of your POE honoree colleagues? I am humbled and honored to be selected. I hope we can spread the word for next year and recruit more of our colleagues to participate in this great tradition. Congratulations to all. Do you have a word of advice for today’s students and residents? It is a gift and a privilege for us to be in the healing profession. I encourage all students and residents to study hard the science of medicine, but not to forget to learn the art of medicine as well. It's the compassion, empathy and connection to others that will bring joy to our days and comfort to our patients. Follow Dr. Bartlett on Social Media!
