Philosophy of Care

My philosophy is built on the belief that knowledge is power. I view my role not just as a prescriber, but as a strategic partner in your health journey. By merging active listening with the latest advancements in obesity medicine and preventive screenings, I help you build a foundation for lifelong wellness.

I practice a 'Family-First, Data-Driven' model of care:

Empowerment through Education: I translate complex medical data into actionable insights, allowing for true shared decision-making.
Efficiency & Technology: I leverage modern tools to streamline your care, ensuring that managing your health is as efficient as it is effective.
Preventive Precision: Much like a well-engineered machine, the human body performs best with proactive maintenance. I focus on stopping illness before it starts through rigorous screening and personalized weight management.
Constant Presence: I am committed to being there when it matters most, providing a high-value, responsive environment where same-day needs are met with compassion and clinical excellence.

He's an excellent doctor. It would be great if there were more doctors like him. He truly gives time to his patients, listens to them, is so patient, very attentive to their needs, respectful of their needs, attentive, and if they can't communicate, they try to. He's a true professional. A 10, excellent doctor. If 10 is the highest, for me it would be a million.
