Philosophy Of Care

Patients need to have a say in their care. I think it is important that they have an open, honest and respectful relationship with their physician.

These are Priorities in My Practice:

• Building a long-term patient-doctor relationship
• Carefully listening to my patient's needs, questions and concerns
• Encouraging patient self-education
• Including the entire family in patient health care delivery
• Partnering with my patient in health care decision making

I Believe in the Importance of These Factors in the Care of My Patients:

• Dealing with complex medical problems
• Emphasizing nutrition in wellness and the treatment of disease
• Meticulous attention to diagnostic evaluation and therapy planning
• Staying abreast of breakthroughs and developments in my specialty
