Philosophy of care
“I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based care with a personal touch for all of my patients. I believe the development of relationships based on understanding and good communication makes me a more effective clinician by gaining the confidence and trust of my patients. I work to educate my patients about their illness, as this empowers them to play an active role in their treatment decisions. I value a team approach, to ensure my patients receive safe, timely, and excellent medical care.”
