Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to do the right thing the first time and every time. I will build a relationship with you based on communication, understanding and most importantly – trust.

Philosophy of care | The most important thing to me is the relationship between patient and doctor. You need to be able to connect and trust if you’re making potentially life-altering decisions together. I can have all my tests and care plans ready to go but if they don’t have a relationship with me and are not comfortable with what I’m trying to do, they’re not going to follow through. So I believe in shared decision making and talking with patients about, for example, undergoing tests – whether they’ll be comfortable with the test, its possible results and what we may want to do in light of it. | It’s also important that we have a team-based practice with input from a variety of providers such as dietitians, nutritionists, nurses and physician assistants, who together help provide comprehensive care. | Why I entered medicine | I initially went into the music field and did recording engineering prior to entering medicine around age 23 or 24.
