Philosophy of Patient Care: To empower patients to
make the best decisions about their care, I aim to involve
them as the key member of their own healthcare team. The best
approach to any problem is truly unique to each patient, and
often changes over time. The approach chosen by the patient
who is well-informed is likely to be the most successful for
that patient. We can help by providing the most complete and
current information about the full range of conservative and
surgical therapies available.
