About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Because of my own experiences as a patient, I have a deep desire for patients to feel that they are participants in a partnership with me in making decisions about their care.  I treat all aspects of otolaryngology but my practice focuses heavily on surgical management of both benign and malignant tumors of the head and neck. This includes thyroid masses, salivary gland tumors, cancers of the mouth and throat as well as others.  While I may have the technical and medical knowledge regarding the advantages and disadvantages of particular treatment options, I feel that it is critically important to understand what values each patient brings with them when making medical decisions.  I want each patient to understand as much as I do about each option then help them to make the best decision for themselves.
