"A.T. Still, MD, the founder of osteopathic medicine, once said, ""To find health should be the object of the doctor. Anyone can find disease."" From my early days in medical school, I was taught to look at the whole person, meaning that I see each patient as more than just a collection of parts that may become injured or disease. This holistic approach taught me how to integrate the patient into the health care process as a partner. This basic foundation was expanded upon as I completed both my residence and fellowship at Duke. I like to think that in the years I have been practicing medicine, I have honored those words spoken by Dr. Still. As a board certified family physician, I have sought to promote wellness and wellbeing among my patients at all stages of their lives, through collaborative partnerships with them (and sometimes their caregivers) in what I believe is truly patient-centered care.

As we look at the scans together and discuss biopsy results, it is important to me that I spend all of the time that my patients and their families need to clearly understand their diagnosis as well as all treatment options, so that we can make joint decisions about next steps and their treatment plan. Many of my patients are referred from all over the country to seek highly specialized urology care, including nonsurgical focal cryotherapy for prostate cancer, robotic surgery for prostate cancer, or robotic surgical removal of their kidney tumor called a partial nephrectomy, among other treatments, with our multidisciplinary, collaborative team.
