We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

About Me

care philosophy

Specializing in Colorectal Surgery.

biography

When patients come to me with colon and rectal concerns, they come to me as people, and not as their problems. To feel successful as a physician, I want those entrusting me with their care to have access to not only the expert evaluation and treatment, but also to a professional and humane experience.
