About
Philosophy of care
I believe that the physician patient relationship is sacred, and rooted in trust, compassion, empathy and mutual respect. Building this relationship is essential to providing the type of care you expect and deserve.
Why I entered medicine
I became a physician to ease suffering and to try to cure diseases. In addition, I have always loved science, and so medicine was a great way to achieve those goals.
