Philosophy:
It is of paramount importance that the care of the patient be a partnership between the physician and the patient. The physician's role is to make recommendations based on his/her expertise. It is the patient's responsibility to decide what is best for him/her based on those recommendations. In order to achieve the best outcome, it is important for the physician and patient to work together.
