Care Philosophy
First and foremost, I believe in a shared-decision making approach to patient care. I enjoy engaging in conversations with my patient to find the best treatments for them based on their goals of care. I also believe in a holistic care approach and care model. I find that taking the whole person into account is the best way to achieve comprehensive patient care.
