Summary

  • After 20 years of experience serving the South Bay, we are more excited than ever to reinvent healthcare the way it should be - centered your individual needs, rather than simply as a part of the healthcare "system". A few words about our core principles follow below; we look forward to welcoming you into our office soon!

    PERSONALIZATION
    Your needs are unique. From your genetics to your lifestyle, from your medical challenges to your strengths, 'Cookbook Medicine' - just isn't. We study best practices and keep up on the latest research in medicine, however the intersection of these sciences with your mind and body is as much an art as a science and needs to be personalized. By focusing our full attention on fewer people, we can individualize care as we would want for our own family.

    COMMUNICATION
    We endeavor to optimize every channel of communication the way we would want as patients ourselves. Online? Sure. Email? of course. Yes, we still believe in telephones-call us anytime. And if our patients really are in a pinch, they have my cellphone number for urgent needs as well. One way or another - we've got you.

    DEDICATION
    Our practice is fully dedicated to our members. While we enjoy great relationships with our local hospitals and specialists, we answer to nobody but you. Whether it be an after hours visit or a housecall, taking the time to thoughtfully research alternatives in your treatment, or simply taking the time to explain things in a way that empowers you in your own health - we are dedicated to ensuring your optimal health at every turn.

    INTEGRATION
    It is a true privilege to have highly qualified experts right here in our own backyard. However, one of the unintended consequences of receiving treatment from multiple specialists is an inherent fragmentation of care. As your 'Medical Quarterback', I help advise you on choosing the plays and the players, and I take the 'time in pocket' to eliminate gaps and ensure everything comes together well.
