My goals are to be in partnership with my patients, to treat them holistically, and to provide them with education and empowerment over their health care choices. I value building relationships with my patients throughout their lifespan. I believe that the health of the family affects the health of the individual and vice versa. I listen carefully to my patients and their families to understand what health and wellness mean to them. By developing a trusting relationship with the patient and their family, we can create a health care plan that addresses their goals, promotes health and prevents illness.
