Dr. Marcus and his wife, Karen, have three amazing (adult) kids: Katie, Matt, and Jon, as well as a grandson, Luke.  He is a terrible golfer and is often brought along only for comic relief.  He loves to take advantage of all that San Diego has to offer, especially spending time mountain biking, hiking and enjoying the perfect weather.
