Get To Know Me
Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I always treat each patient as a whole, rather than only treating their disease.
What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
Trust and honesty is the most important part of the doctor/patient relationship, and patients can expect clear communication from me about the reasons for each step taken in their management plan.
How do you spend your personal time when you're not caring for patients?
I enjoy my free time with family and enjoy outdoor activities like running, hiking and rock climbing.
Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
I chose my specialty for the high acuity diseases that are encountered. The greatest reward is being able to connect with patients and earn their trust.
