Philosophy:
I strongly believe in patient centered care, based on mutual respect, kindness, and honesty. I strongly believe that it is just as important for a good physician NOT to perform a unnecessary test, as it is for her or her to perform a necessary test. Breast cancer has touched me personally, through my family, and I have dedicated my life to caring for women faced with this disease, and to seek new state of the art approaches for detecting breast cancer through my research efforts
