Philosophy of Medicine
"My philosophy of medicine is to treat people how I would want my family members and myself to be treated. I strive to care for the whole person with care and compassion. I enjoy caring for patients in all stages of life, from pregnancy and birth to end-of-life care. I ultimately hope to develop a long-term relationship with my patients that is ongoing."
