I’m On Your Time – Daniel B. Marcus, M.D.

Posted on Sep 13, 2012 | 0 comments

People come to see Daniel B. Marcus, M.D., a PAMF physical medicine and rehabilitation physician in Santa Cruz, with severe problems for which they are seeking solutions. “The fact that they trust me to help them find an answer carries with it a great responsibility,” he says. “I find that to be very gratifying.”

The answers he helps people find are dependent upon who they are, he stresses. “When people come to see me, I’m on their time. We put our heads together and find the way that fits who they are and what they want out of life.” His patients are often relieved to find out they can treat their neck or back pain with minimal intervention, or that the right surgery at the right time can bring the result they desire. “I focus on the person, and not just the diagnosis,” he says in this video, which is part of a series highlighting the diverse voices of PAMF physicians.
