RECOGNIZING DR. ABRAHAM LIEBERMAN
(Mr. GOSAR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. GOSAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Dr. Abraham Lieberman, who
just recently announced his retirement. Dr. Lieberman has been a
practicing neurologist for over 50 years, working at the Barrow
Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, for much of his career.
Dr. Lieberman dedicated his life to the treatment and eradication of
Parkinson's disease, treating over 40,000 patients, including Muhammad
Ali. He wrote six books on Parkinson's, including ``100 Questions &
Answers About Parkinson's Disease,'' the best-selling book on that
disease.
His work has done an immeasurable amount of good in furthering the
treatment of Parkinson's and to help create a much greater quality of
life for those who have the dreaded disease.
I am pleased that the Barrow Institute has created a way that people
can honor Dr. Lieberman by setting up the Lieberman Legacy Fund so
individuals can donate money towards Parkinson's research and
treatment.
I wish Dr. Lieberman a long and happy retirement with his wife of 50
years, Ina, his 4 children, and 10 grandchildren.
Dr. Lieberman's pursuit to conquer Parkinson's has endeared him to
his patients, with his personalized touch to each and every one of
them. He has become an iconic pillar of excellence in medicine.
Your patients are so grateful. Thank you, Dr. Lieberman.
