Overview
Philosophy of care | It is the responsibility of health care clinicians to provide patients and families with the information they need to help make the best decisions for themselves. | Why I entered medicine | Helping people when they are at their most vulnerable can be one of the most fulfilling ways to give back to society. Serving humanity can take many forms and helping someone get better can be rewarding and encouraging. | Community involvement | I support trauma education and awareness regarding community safety issues such as Stop the Bleed and proper helmet use. | Personal interests | Two of the best things about me are my rescue dogs. If I had the means, I would rescue all the dogs I could everywhere!.
