+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + + +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ FROM THE PUBLISHER +++ +++ TT WIN CITIES PHYSICIANS, thanks for taking a few minutes out of your busy schedules to read our November issue of MD News. I am a fi rm believer that you never stop learning, never know every- thing and always can expand your knowledge from others. We hope our feature stories, articles and ads in MD News give you a little bit of knowledge, new perspective and an overall better view of the Twin Cities health care community. We would like to hear your thoughts, suggestions and ideas for future articles. We like to feature all areas of medicine, from new treatments to ground- breaking technology to experienced physicians leading the path of their specialties. This month, we explore a relatively new noninvasive treatment option for pain — phototherapy. We spoke with Charles Burton, M.D., with the Sentinel Medical Associates Laser Center, to discuss the process, treatment areas, and why patients and physicians may want to consider this option prior to surgery. Check out this issue's cover story to see what phototherapy is all about. 2012 Planning! Don't forget to schedule time to talk about plans and programs for 2012!
