Philosophy of Care:
I believe good health care starts with truly knowing my patients and their families. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I see every patient as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms, and I take into account your physical, emotional, and everyday life needs when making decisions together. I value open conversations and want you to feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and being an active part of your care. Preventive care and healthy lifestyle choices are just as important as treating illness, and I enjoy working alongside you to build habits that support long-term wellness. I care for my patients the way I would want my own family cared for—with compassion, honesty, and a commitment to being there for you at every stage of life.
