About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Medical care should involve shared decisions between physician and patient and not just the physician telling the patient was to do.  I enjoy spending the time talking with the patient because that's how you get to know them and find out what their real concerns are.  The more comfortable you make the patient, the more information you get from them.
