From the Doctor:
A native of eastern New Jersey, Dr. Richard Grochmal is a graduate of Georgetown University in Washington DC. He completed his residency at Jacksonville Health Education Programs.
While he was sad to see Fox's action-packed series, 24, come to an end, Dr. Grochmal still takes pleasure in relaxing in the mountains, listening to rock music, and cooking.
