About Me

Care Philosophy

  • I treat every patient as if they were a close friend or family member. If there are decisions to be made I let the patient know my preferences in the evaluation and treatment of their issues. I let them make the final decision unless they choose a medication or controlled substance that I do not feel is appropriate for their condition.
