About

Philosophy of care

My philosophy of care is to provide the best care that I possibly can. I believe in engaging the patient and encouraging them to be equally involved to achieve the best possible outcome.

Why I entered medicine

My initial goal in life was to help people. I began my career as a pharmacist and discovered that I could be of even greater service by becoming a physician and surgeon.

Community involvement

I donate to worthy causes locally, nationally and internationally throughout the year. I believe that it is important to help the disadvantaged whenever possible.

Personal interests

When I am not at work, I like spending quality time with my family and strive to instill the desire to achieve a greater good in my children. I have an interest in advances in technology and like to read journals and articles pertaining to this topic.
