Fifth Edition Marquis Who’s Who INSIGHT 21 DAVID A. GOORAY, MD Cardiologist The University of Maryland Capital Region Medical Center Largo, MD marquismillennium.com/10th_Ed/171 How have you navigated disruptions in your industry to remain a top professional? I focus on the challenges that are a necessary part of my everyday function, like the needs of my patients. I also focus on what I need to do to address these challenges as part of my practice. That expands into continued preparation and keeping up with medical literature. What is the most important issue/challenge you are dealing with in your industry? The biggest challenge is getting medicines approved by insurance companies, especially medicines that have been shown to improve quality of life and life expectancy. It takes a lot of time and prior authorizations. These medications are definitive in their value, but we still we have difficulty getting them approved. MICHAEL J. EYRE Attorney, Owner Law Offices of Michael J. Eyre Long Beach, CA www.eyrelaw.com/ How have you navigated disruptions in your industry to remain a top professional? It’s just a matter of going out and looking for the work. I avoid disruptions by digging in and working hard. What innovations or technologies do you feel will shape the future of your industry? As a new attorney, having a fax machine was cutting edge, but now it’s obsolete. I had a computer in law school — I was probably one of the few to have one, since I built my own computer. We just have to adapt to the changes. I don’t think about them as they are happening, I just have to respond as they come. What excites you the most about your industry? Since I am dealing with different issues, I can always learn something new. DONALD RAY GORE, MD Clinical Professor of Orthopedic Surgery Medical College of Wisconsin Milwaukee, WI spotlight.marquiswhoswho. com/donald-gore/ How have you navigated disruptions in your industry to remain a top professional? I paid attention to what was important, which was taking care of patients. How do you feel your industry has changed/evolved? It has become a big business and is no longer patient care oriented. Physicians have become employees for big organizations. What innovations or technologies do you feel will shape the future of your industry? Vaccines and public health measures are probably the most important things that should be distributed to physicians so they can understand how to react to problems like COVID-19. There have also been many technical advances in orthopedic surgery, such as better diagnostic tools, that weren’t available when I began.
