Dr. Sinoff’s approach is “Partnered Care”.* In partnered care there are two “experts”. 1. The patient is the expert who best knows their personal core values, and their unique medical history, including prior and current illnesses, reactions to medication (expected and unexpected) as well as their unique emotional profile. 2. The care provider has training in medical science, growing in the career-long process of accumulating information and experience utilized to address specific issues pertinent to the patient’s health concerns. In a healthcare setting, the two experts ideally combine competencies with the goal of creating the most positive outcomes possible — from the patient’s point of view. * Making the Patient Your Partner, Thomas Gordon Ph.D. and W. Sterling Edwqrds, M.D. - 1995. Dr. Sinoff is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Meningitis. His top areas of expertise are Vertigo, Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, Congenital Cardiovascular Shunt, and Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
