Whether it is a well-check, managing acute/chronic diseases, or discussing end-of-life care, I believe that modern medicine requires the patient and provider to form an interactive partnership. As your healthcare provider, it is my job to educate, empower, and provide realistic options that are evidence-based and holistic. Through collaboration and thoughtful dialogue, it is my goal to help you reach an informed decision that is focused on your values and goals.
