Philosophy of care
“My philosophy of care has always been centered around putting my patients and their families first. Always. Compassion, collaboration, attentiveness, positivity, and respect are core values I hold very near and dear to my heart, and drive how I practice. I treat my patients like I would want my own family treated. While I must stay true to my training, knowledge, and expertise, my goal is to work together with my patients to come up with an individualized evidence-based plan of care that will meet their needs and keep them healthy.
