|
What type of care/clinical interests are you most passionate about?

Why did you choose your specialty?

I chose family medicine because I wanted to care for people throughout their whole lifespan and to build trusting provider-patient relationships with my patients. Family medicine allows me to treat my patients as a whole individual rather than the disease process that ails them.

|
What is the most important thing patients should know about you and your practice?
|
I would like my patients to know I will take time to listen to their concerns and care for them the way that I would care for my own family. I am a caring, family-oriented individual who strives to provide a holistic approach to an individual and family's health.
