Paul G. Schmitz, M.D. | Physician • Educator • Author

This site brings together my work as a physician, author, and independent essayist. My professional life began in medicine, but over time, a longstanding interest in history, public affairs, and historical biography grew from a hobby into a serious passion. Here you will find books, long-form essays, and commentary shaped by a physician’s respect for evidence and clarity, with a focus on the presidency, civics, healthcare, public policy, and American history.

Across these subjects, the goal is the same: to bring signal over noise to serious questions in civic life, public policy, and healthcare.
