My Air and Sea Physician

Imagine my delight to learn that my MDVip Dr. Mike Sterenberg in Grand Haven, Michigan, is both a pilot and accomplished sailor, matching the profession and great passion of my life.
The FAA has some very specific medical standards for pilots and, now that I'm older, my blood pressure was borderline to keep flying. Without knowing that Dr. Sterenberg is himself a pilot I signed on to his MDVip service on the advice of my FAA medical examiner. Because he is a veteran pilot, Dr. Sterenberg instantly understood the issues, knew what would meet the FAA standards, and had me on a treatment plan that made the FAA medical examiner happy and keeps my health on track.
The bonus was learning that Dr. Sterenberg is a racing sailor, an activity I've devoted countless hours of my free time to. There is an intense bond between sailors and pilots, and I was fortunate to find it with Dr. Sterenberg. We instantly bonded over sea and flying stories and the entire experience has made my MDVip choice one of the best in many years.
Does being a pilot and sailor make Dr. Sterenberg a superior physician? It sure does for me.
