Meet The Doctor

What can a patient expect when they have you as a doctor?

I want each patient to understand how important they are to me and that I am devoted to their care and I will do my best to do the right thing.

What is the most important factor in a doctor patient relationship and why?

Trust and empathy are essential. I must understand your pain to effectively treat you, and, as a patient, you must trust that I will do all I can to act in your best interests.

What hobbies or activities do you enjoy when you're not working?

My family is my most important focus outside of work. I love spending time with my children. Literature, arts, and travel fill my free time.

What about your line of work do you find the most rewarding and why?

I enjoy the close bond with my patients. I hope that each day I can help my patients understand their physical condition and relieve or alleviate their pain and suffering.
