Overview

“I believe that the best medical care requires a team approach.  The team must include the doctor, members of his/her staff, the patient and the patient's family.  As the medical expert on the team, I keep up to date on the latest developments in my field to help guide the patient in choosing treatment.  I strive to incorporate each patient's objectives and preferences.  Many patients find out that they have more choices than they expected.".
