Philosophy of care
“I believe it is important for physicians to listen, support, counsel, and guide our patients. I have found that in many cases, our willingness to lend an ear or a shoulder to our patients is as important as the clinical approaches that are taken. I care deeply about my patients and want them to feel heard and supported throughout their process of care.”
