Care Philosophy
I specialize in the care of critically ill patients with severe neurologic injuries, with an emphasis on limiting secondary brain injury, preserving function and coordinating closely with neurosurgical providers for patients who require surgical intervention. It is a priority of mine to ensure patients and families have clear understanding of their condition, potential for recovery, and that individual patient values are always taken into account in the care provided.
