Overview
Having been a Urologist for 20 years, I find that my relationship with my patients is central to their optimal care. I take time to get to know them and their 'care team' including their extended family. I get to know their expectations, life philosophies and help them realize that every decision we make regarding their care is a shared decision. My patients are aware of the standard of care guidelines to manage their conditions, but I always counsel my patients on all the available options and allow them to make a tailored decision for themselves.
