About

Philosophy of care

My approach is collaborating with you so you understand heart disease as well as your options for treatment. The partnership of shared decision-making with you and your family will consider your personal goals and beliefs. It is the cornerstone of an effective doctor-patient relationship I strive for in every patient interaction.

Why I entered medicine

I entered medicine to marry my interest in science and biology with a passion for people and a desire to make lives better.

Personal interests

I enjoy spending free time outdoors on both the mountains and the beaches.
