Philosophy:
I consider myself to be a caring and compassionate physician who takes the time to communicate effectively with my patients and co-workers. I also consider myself to be an effective leader. Although my day to day work is varied in scope and complexity, my main goal is to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with gynecologic malignancies, particularly ovarian cancer, which is the most difficult women's cancer to treat once it develops.
