Patrick J. Collins
2128 Blakeslee Blvd Dr E, 
Lehighton, PA 

Overview

Philosophy of care | I strive to provide you patient-centered care. I listen to patients to learn about their lives and their illnesses, educate them regarding treatment options, and then engage them in the decision-making process to determine the best outcome for their goals and desires. | Why I entered medicine | Medicine is unique in that it is both emotionally rewarding and intellectually stimulating. I feel good about myself and my work helping others on a daily basis, and I have the opportunity to continually learn because our collective medical knowledge is constantly expanding and evolving. | Personal interests | Outside of medicine, I enjoy staying active through any outdoor activity or recreational sport. I also like to read and watch movies and look forward to traveling post-pandemic.
