Philosophy:
I believe every patient has a unique diagnosis and need. I individualize my care for every patient...and stress the fact that surgery is considered only when all non-surgical options have been exhausted. I pride myself in taking care of my patients...one patient at a time. I believe in the three A's of success: Ability, Affability and Availability. I strive to provide the best care I can for each and every one of my patients.
