Dr. Debus said, “I enjoy getting to know my patients, and am interested in understanding the whole person, not just their medical history. I take the time to educate my patients about other medical conditions, medications, lifestyle, emotional and nutritional factors that may affect sleep. In many instances, providing my patients with this understanding may enable them to minimize the use of medications that are habit-forming or have unacceptable side effects.” Dr. Debus is married to Dr. Gretchen Toler, an internist. They have two children in college. He is actively involved in Boy Scouts, and enjoys traveling, camping, gardening and reading. |
