I seek to build my medical practice on the following: Compassionate and competent care: I believe that providing excellent medicine cannot happen in the absence of compassionate and kind patient-centered care. Listening and understanding are basic foundations of helping people achieve better health. Communicated care: I value learning from patients about their concerns and health needs, while also teaching patients about their conditions and answering questions to help them be well, informed and at ease. Comprehensive care: There is a clear link between physical, psychological,emotional and spiritual health. I enjoy helping people pursue wellness in all these aspects of their lives.
