Philosophy:
I treat each patient as an individual, with a focus on patient education, clear communication, and partnering for better health. I strive to be respectful, approachable, ethical, and timely. I am committed to high quality EMG and nerve conduction studies, producing unequalled reports, minimizing patient discomfort, communicating results clearly to patients, and collaborating with their other health care providers. My passion is seeing independence flourish in the lives of those with disability.
