About Me

care philosophy

I seek to take care of patients the way that I would want my family taken care of. Good outcomes are everyone's top priority, but patient and parent satisfaction is also highly important. My sense of satisfaction depends on the patient being satisfied. In addition to technical expertise, I place value on good communication.
