About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy is to consider the entire picture when treating a patient, as well as their own personal requests and desired outcomes. Listening to a patient allows for an accurate diagnosis and in turn, maximizes positive outcomes and the highest level of care.
Why I entered medicine
I love medicine; it is truly my passion. Every day brings the opportunity to meet new people and help their quality of life. I chose to be an obstetrician/gynecologist because of my general interest in wellness. To me, this specialty allows me to see all phases of life. From prenatal care, to delivery, to wellness and surgical procedures, obstetrics and gynecology provides the opportunity to provide the most complete care.
Personal interests
I enjoy photography.
