Philosophy of Medicine
The unknown of an office visit can be challenging for some patients, so my goal is to make a patient feel comfortable and to reduce their anxiety. I focus on building rapport and making sure each patient understands what to expect with the appointment. I explain the process prior to testing and then the results following the exam so the patient and I can work together to determine the best intervention. During the appointment, the patient and their family are the only people I care about.
