Get To Know Me

Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
Because when my office is off hours my personal phone is always on.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
My practicing philosophy is trust, honesty, excellence and availability. I would except my patients to feel free to ask questions and develop continuity in their care.

How do you spend your personal time when you're not caring for patients?
I like to read, run, hike and bike.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
In vascular surgery, there is a plethora of new technology and creativity involved which in combination with instant gratification of “fixing” things with my hands made me fall in love with what I do.
