Tools of the Trade

By John J Kuiper, MD, FACP

Dr Kuiper was an internist and nephrologist with SCPMG in Panorama City for 26 years; since retirement, he has continued teaching and research at the UCLA Medical Center. Upon completion of a drawing class, Dr Kuiper rendered this 16x20-inch graphite on paper drawing of medical equipment that, with the exception of the newer stethoscope, served him for 43 years.
