Overview

Philosophy of care | I treat all of my patients as if they are members of my family. I feel that my role as a physician and surgeon is to educate each patient so that they can make the best decision for their particular illness. | Why I entered medicine | I chose this profession to help people and to be stimulated intellectually. I was also inspired by my family to become a physician and surgeon. My father and brother are dentists, and my mother was an operating room nurse. | Personal interests | I enjoy playing golf, cooking, cycling, reading and spending time with my wife and children.
