Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I try to bring a sense of empathy, along with a sense of affability and affordability to my practice.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
During our visits I try to emphasize patient choice without judgement in the therapeutic relationship. The only incorrect choice for your health is the one you are not comfortable with.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you are not caring for patients?
With a toddler at home there is less free time lately. But when I am home, I enjoy cooking, watching Patriots games and palling around with my dog or cats.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
Neurology was my favorite rotation in medical school. The most rewarding aspect of Neurology is the ability to have a long-term impact on patients with diseases that are sometimes lifelong.
