We have some exciting news to share with you from VIPcare. We are proud to introduce you to one of the newest members of our health care team, Dr. Richard Satriale. Dr. Satriale has joined our team at the Lady Lake primary care clinic.
Dr. Satriale brings over 40 years of experience practicing medicine and specializes in internal medicine and geriatrics. He says VIPcare is a perfect fit for how he practices medicine and that it’s with faith and hope that he looks forward with great anticipation to working with the VIPcare team.
Who is Dr. Richard Satriale?
Dr. Satriale comes from a family of physicians and nurses and says his decision to go into medicine is deeply personal. “It was a calling from God,” he said. “Am I sure about this? Yes, especially because at the time, I was naturally a lazy person, and I knew how much work it was.”
With his mother being a nurse and his father a part-time surgeon and general practitioner, Dr. Satriale grew up watching his parents work tirelessly to care for others. His father’s practice was located in the family home, and he recalls the telephone ringing day and night and patients being in their home as late as 11 p.m. in need of medical care.
Thinking he did not want to follow in his father’s footsteps, Dr. Satriale began his studies in accounting, as numbers were a natural talent and always seemed to come easy for him. However, numbers never gave him the satisfaction medicine did. “I can’t say that I was enthusiastic about accounting,” he said. “Medicine, on the other hand, is enthralling.”
As a result, Dr. Satriale changed course and attended CETEC University Santo Domingo, earning his medical degree. And like his father, he too opened an at-home practice in Lancaster County, PA, to care for the community.
“Medicine has been my life by divine calling,” Dr. Satriale said. “My fulfillment comes from being truly in community with my co-workers and patients. I, like my father, brother, and the four nurses in our family, walk beside my patients. We suffer together, we toil together, we achieve good things together.”
Dr. Satriale is excited to begin growing his new family of patients here in Lady Lake.
