Care Philosophy: I try to always make my patients aware of all the alternatives. I like to establish realistic goals and plans for the problem. I like to empower my patients with all the information as to help them help me make the best decision for them. I work hard to communicate very clearly and use time wisely so that my patients have as much time as they need. I always think about what I would want for one of my family members. I always consider minimally invasive surgery which makes surgery and recovery much easier for my patients.
