Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to be focused on patients and work with them to achieve optimal health through screening for medical conditions, addressing medical problems that arise and overall having a good, healthy lifestyle. I believe in the family medicine model of approaching the whole patient in the context of their background, including their cultural, religious and moral beliefs, to ensure the best outcomes and the healthiest life. That incorporates the entire family and the role family plays in health – because if patients have that social support, they actually have better outcomes in the long run. | Why I entered medicine | I got interested in medicine during college. I can’t say there was one defining moment or a specific event that led to it – I just had a fascination with human health.

Philosophy of care | The first thing a physician must do is to listen to his patient, allowing treatment of the person rather than just the diagnosis. I believe in a team approach when caring for patients that includes physicians from multiple specialties as well as physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists and others to provide the expertise and attention you deserve. | Why I entered medicine | Urology care incorporates several aspects of medicine. Although many patients require surgical management, others require medical management alone.
