Care Philosophy: I treat each person as a unique individual. I get to know that person and listen to the medical issue(s) that led him/her to see me. I spend time in conversation and examination to gather the information necessary for a diagnosis and treatment. I discuss the management options so that we can jointly select the appropriate treatment. Every question is welcomed. I enjoy learning about each person and sharing the benefit of my expertise. I hold sacred the trust placed in my care.
