Summary

  • Illness is a scary and overwhelming time for patients and their families. I consider it my job, and moreover my passion, to go above and beyond as a surgeon in order to make the disease and the treatment plan understandable. I believe in establishing strong relationships with my patients. Those relationships are built on open communication and trust. It is my mission to facilitate patient comfort and understanding through a therapeutic team of people, all dedicated to the patient.
