Philosophy of Care:
I view patient care as a partnership. My role is to explain diagnoses and treatment options clearly, so patients can be active participants in their care. I strive to provide the same level of thoughtful, thorough care that I would want for my own family. Together, we work to improve health, cure disease, and enhance quality of life.
Clinical Interests:
