Having treated tens of thousands of patients, he now brings his varied background to the Magellan mission: to lead humanity to healthy, vibrant lives. A proud father of three, Dr. Forehand is a tennis aficionado (as you might guess from his name). He loves the beach, the forest, the mountains, the desert, and all things outdoors.
