Philosophy of Care

Self care is the cornerstone of a healthy mind and body. It is never too late to implement the necessary lifestyle changes to aid in being your best self. I believe in a patient-centered, team-based approach that applies shared decision making while focusing on current evidence-based guidelines. I am sensitive to the cultural and socioeconomic diversity of my patients and acknowledge their perspective regarding their diagnosis, treatment and management of diseases.
