While physicians go through years of training to master their own subspecialty, the essence of being a medical practitioner can sometimes be overlooked. I first went into medical school interested in treating the individual. Since then, I have kept this approach with my patients in the unique field of electrophysiology. I firmly believe in open communication with each patient and providing every opportunity for informed decision making. My goal is to serve each patient to the best of my abilities while not forgetting the big picture in regard to patient care.
