In Spring 2026's issue of Arizona Physician we celebrate physicians, their practices, their medical journeys and ways for better well-being. Our cover story is John Shufeldt, MD, JD, MBA, a physician, lawyer, entrepreneur, educator, and pilot as he discusses his ever expanding career. Our featured practices are Desert Institute for Spine Care (DISC), an orthopedic spine surgery practice and Endocrinology Associates,' PA, a practice focused on helping patients with endocrine disorders. We also feature Tasha Powell, MD, a Neurologist who shares why we must rethink mental health and Marcela Testail, MD, shares her reinvention throughout her medical journey. Our department articles speak to the need for better understanding on microaggressions, physician financial well-being, and how physicians can help their patients navigate misinformation on vaccines. The issue ends with more MCMS member practices.
