Radiculopathy near Elk Grove, CA

Care Philosophy: I am excited to provide my patients with the most cutting-edge surgical advancements in brain and spine surgery. However, I believe that compassion is just as important as technology. I work with my patients and their family members to educate them about their condition and treatment options so that we can make decisions as a team. I often advise non-operative therapies when I feel they are in my patients' best interests. When I give advice to my patients I look at them as family members and my guidance is the same I would give to my family, friends, or myself if I were in their shoes.

Care Philosophy: I believe that clear communication and listening to a patient's concerns are a vital component to developing a strong theraputic alliance. As a team, we will formulate a plan to best take care of the patient with an evidence-based, humanistic approach.

Care Philosophy: All living things exist in a delicately balanced state. Disease is the manifestation of an imbalance. Prevention of disease (learning how to prevent imbalance) is the biggest contribution the provider can make to the well-being of the patient. For the sick, as a provider, I feel my job is to identify the cause of an imbalance and help the patient regain health. Most healing comes from the patient- I can help guide the body's natural healing abilities, but I cannot create health.

Care Philosophy: ``Helping my patients and their families navigate their personal care and the health system with evidence-based medicine and sound advice with an emphasis on shared decision-making, namely always listening to my patients' concerns and placing them first.``

Care Philosophy: I believe in providing the best medical care possible for my patients.
