Description

I listen first to my patients to develop trust in the relationship and to gain clues to what is wrong. I want to help my patients and their families understand the "why" behind my recommendations. Understanding helps people better manage their conditions, improve their quality of life and make safer decisions regarding their health care. Ultimately, I want my patients to be comfortable with the choices they make.
