Esotouric Tours July 21st & 22nd For the Literature Lovers

For the literature lovers, there are two Esotouric tours this weekend around downtown LA.

July 21st Raymond Chandler

"Bungalows. Crime. Hollywood. Blondes. Vets. Smog. Death.
This was Raymond Chandler's Los Angeles, which resonated from deft and melancholy fits of his writer's bow. Join us as we go down the mean streets that shaped his fiction..."


July 22nd John Fante

"Before Kerouac, before Bukowski, there was John Fante, author of "Ask the Dust," "Dreams of Bunker Hill," "Full of Life," "The Road to Los Angeles" and "Wait Until Spring, Bandini." This five-novel cycle, written over sixty years, introduced the world to Arturo Bandini, an outspoken, down-and-out Mr. Hyde to Fante's Dr. Jekyll.

As Bunker Hill's prodigal son, Fante-as-Bandini chronicles a forgotten Los Angeles neighborhood..."

The Doctor is in the building

In responce to a number of inquiries from residents and owners new to LA/Downtown LA concerning possible referrals to local doctors/dentists/other health professionals, I would like to share the following information:

I am not in active clinical practice any longer, but am engaged in consulting Naturopathic & Alternative Medicine practice (http://www.askdrd.blogspot.com/w.askdrd.blogspot.com/) .

I also run the National Health & Wellness Advocacy engaged in the economics, policy and politics of health carING (ot at least it should be) established in 1993 (http://www.drdorodny.blogspot.com/)

Having practiced in ER/ORs in Los Angeles/Pasadena/Glendale/Santa Monica areas, (after escape from NY--Albert Einstein and Bronx-Lebanon) for over 25 years I am an invaluable resource for a free neighbourly "triage" and appropriate referral and would be happy to be of service to all nice intelligent people.

Such free friendly advice does not constitute a formal confidential contractual doctor-patient relationship; and, as always, I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.

For the duration of remodeling of my unit I will continue to live in Malibu, but can be reached by phone at (310) 663-2949. In case of medical emergency, stop reading this posting and Dial 911!

Be Well!

Dr.D.
