title: Three Wishes for Performing Arts Healthcare.
abstract: As I think back over my 30-plus years as a physician and researcher in performing arts healthcare and try to imagine what might happen in the next 30 years, I sometimes fantasize about having three wishes that some supernatural force would grant. While waiting for something like that to happen is not likely to be an effective strategy for improving the health of performing artists around the world, the thought exercise might help to flesh out some ideas that could lead to further progress. While others will come up with different wishes (that I'm sure would be at least as valid), here are mine.
