About Me

My philosophy is that the most important service I can provide is education. The word doctor is derived from the Latin word "to teach", which is what I strive to do every visit. I believe strongly that any decisions made in medicine should be done as a team between the doctor and patient. My role is to explain the disease or process and provide options for improvement while listening to the patients goals and desires. Only in working together can we come up with the best plan for each individual.
