OsteoarthritisofHand near Raymond, NH

Care Philosophy: Dr. Welch treats patients from all walks of life and considers each patient's lifestyle when formulating a treatment plan for each patient. Many patients often respond well to non-surgical treatment, which may include a dedicated physical therapy program. In those patients who require surgery, Dr. Welch tailors his surgical plan to each patient's goals.

Care Philosophy: I chose Orthopaedic Surgery because it is incredibly rewarding to restore another human being's function and quality of life through the skill of my own hands. My approach to patient care has always been to treat patients as if they were my own family or friends who need surgery. My strength as a physician is completely relating to patients, making them laugh, making them comfortable, explaining every detail to them, and making it easy for them to be confident in me and making them know I will always be there for them. In my spare time I like to hang out with family and friends, ski, play tennis, and read.

Care Philosophy: Many years ago, when I was contemplating going into medicine as a career I was often asked why. My response was typically because I wanted to help others. Throughout my career, that has been my goal ultimately to help those patients seeking my care. I have found it is best to begin by treating the patient as a person, an individual. Each patient should be treated with respect. I try to provide the same high-quality care for all of my patients regardless of age, health status, or other factors.

Care Philosophy: Internal medicine allows me to have extensive hospital training with a focus strictly on adult medicine, which is my preference. My special area of interest leans towards diagnosis and treatment of acute and sub acute illnesses. I am committed to providing all patients with comprehensive and quality healthcare in a friendly and comfortable atmosphere with a focus on effective communication and patient education.
