About Me

Care Philosophy
  • My philosophy with surgical intervention is to ``proceed with caution``. Surgery is an invasive endeavor, which should be addressed with mutual respect and partnership between surgeon and patient. Therefore, when considering surgical treatment, conservative measures should have been exhausted prior to serious surgical consideration.
