About

Philosophy of care

My philosophy of care is basic: treat patients as I would want to be treated or as I would want my family to be treated. To me, this means being honest, open, always providing evidence-based medicine, and helping patients become active members in their healthcare. I also bring a unique interest in "integrative medicine," which is the use of safe complementary or alternative medicine to aid in traditional patient care. In all circumstances, my focus is to recommend only evidence-based use of alternative treatments in the very best interests of my patients.

Why I entered medicine

I love the career continuity and satisfaction that being an obstetrician/gynecologist provides. It allows me to develop long-term relationships with women from adolescence, through the childbearing years, to menopause and beyond. Through medicine and particularly in the field of ob/gyn, I can provide primary care services, and family planning services, and then be the doctor who delivers your baby or operates on you should you require a gynecologic surgery. The fact that I provide minimally invasive surgery to reduce a patient’s time in the hospital is a satisfying experience I can offer to patients. It means a lot to me that I can be the same physician who cares for you and the female members of your family for most of your lives.

Personal interests

My greatest passion is families—my own family and having the privilege of helping others start to build their families.
