Philosophy

I value getting to know my patients personally. I believe in active collaboration with patients and families to design individualized treatment plans that are based on the latest scientific data and tailored to their unique goals and values. It is important to me that I listen to and communicate with my patients unambiguously, discussing their treatment options and answering their questions in plain language, so that they have a clear understanding of their disease and are able to choose what is best for their needs. I want no patient to leave the office thinking they were rushed through their visit.
