    Philosophy of Care:

    As a Multiple Sclerosis specialist, it is my goal to provide comprehensive care with an emphasis on shared decision making. The number of treatment options available for quieting MS have increased dramatically over the last decade, necessitating a personalized approach to managing care. Treatment decisions incorporate patient preferences following a comprehensive review of the clinical history, MRI images, and laboratory testing. The main priority is providing care that is safe, effective, and addresses our patients' concerns and preferences.
