Biography

About This Provider
"I strive to build a strong, compassionate relationship and provide the best treatment possible for every person and family under my care. Being hospitalized can be a very frightening time and I will work with you, your primary care physician and any necessary specialist to ensure that you receive exceptional, coordinated care."

Medical Philosophy
Dr. Westfall made the decision to go into medicine so he could draw upon his two loves: the sciences and educating/helping others. Although many of his patients are only in the hospital for a short-time, he believes that this still allows plenty of time to develop a rewarding relationship with his patients. Dr. Westfall feels the best physician/patient relationships develop from a sense of mutual respect, understanding and continued discussion. He promises to give his patients the time they need with him, always listening to their concerns and answering any questions that they may have.

Personal Interests
In his free time, Dr. Westfall enjoys outdoor activities, such as biking, running, basketball and hiking.
