Philosophy:
Every patient is unique regardless of the type of symptoms he/she is displaying and every patient deserves world class care.
When it comes to medications, less is more. Prescribing a laundry list of medications not only is unlikely to improve the condition being treated but also expose patients to side effects and to drug-drug interactions.
