WHEY COOL

Although

yogurt has been around

for 7,000 years, its

many health bene ts

haven’t aged a day. Just

be sure you eat the

whey—the liquid that

rises to the top. That’s

where much of yogurt’s

calcium is found.

TIME IT RIGHT

If your

doctor has recom-

mended a low-dose

aspirin a day, take it

at least a half-hour

before—or 8 hours

after—you take ibupro-

fen or naproxen. Why?

They can interfere with

the effects of aspirin.

PET THE PUPPY

Do you

have a baby, plus some

pets? Spending this

rst year with more than

one dog or cat in the

house may make your

child less likely to de-

velop allergies than kids

raised without pets.

hannon Clinic pediatrician Doug Schultz,

MD, always liked baseball but had no idea it

would wind up being such a big part of his

life. Years ago, Dr. Schultz attended one of

his son’s Little League games. e assigned

umpire didn’t show. A call went out through

the stands, “Is there an umpire in the house?” “No,”

came the reply, “but we do have a doctor!”

Dr. Schultz was pressed into service and realized

he loved being part of the game. For over

years,

Dr. Schultz has been calling Little League, high

school and college games.

When Dr. Schultz isn’t calling balls and strikes,

he’s caring for young patients at Shannon. is al-

lows him to do what he likes to do best—making

sick children better.

Originally from San Antonio, he attended medi-

cal school at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston

and did his residency at Texas Children’s Hospital.

Dr. Schultz has been at Shannon since

, and he

is now the chairman of the pediatrics department.

He chose Shannon because it has a great medical

community. He chose San Angelo because he wanted

his kids to grow up with small-town values.

We are proud to share the stories of our physi-

cians and sta , who deliver exceptional quality and

are devoted to providing the best possible care for

our patients. ey are also a vital part of our com-

munity and are proud to call San Angelo home. To
