NORQUIST: I have been participating in endurance events since medical school including ultramarathon running (anything over 26 miles and often on trails and through mountain terrain) as well as Ironman Triathlons here in Arizona. Ive only missed two Ironman Arizona events since 2005; one in 2019 due to the death of my mother-in-law and the 2021 event due to chemotherapy for lymphoma (Im cancer-free!). I competed last year and will participate again this year. In August of 2023,I completed the Leadville 100 Mountain Bike Race, which is considered one of the hardest 100-mile mountain bike events in the country. I guess I like to push myself and stay healthy!HHF: We heard you have a camera/doorbell for capturing birds that stop at your house and that you feature them on a dedicated Instagram page.DR.

A community centered on philanthropy and kindness has the power to elevate the quality of care and understanding for those suffering with opioid and fentanyl addiction. The goal is to keep more people healthy and alive.Dr. Norquist reects, I have been working with stakeholders in the state since 2008 on ways to recognize and change the direction of prescribing of opioids to now working on changing the approach to prevention and risk reduction. We have shown signicant progress on more appropriate prescribing of opioids but are now faced with illicit fentanyl as a major contributor to use disorder, which presents new challenges.
