His personal knowledge of Down syndrome as well as his medical knowledge allows him to challenge medical ethics and make his colleagues think where others can't. Just as important, his position allows him to change the conversation his medical colleagues have regarding Down syndrome from one of always despair to something more positive or at least one that has two sides. Please keep it up, Dr. Skotko! Dr. Brian Skotko is a someone on whom I have come to depend to voice my ethical and other concerns regarding Down syndrome to the medical community.
