Care Philosophy
"My approach to care is rooted in the belief that every patient deserves to be seen, heard, and respected not just as a diagnosis, but as a whole person. I strive to build lasting relationships with my patients by listening first, educating thoroughly, and partnering with them on their journey to lifelong health.
Whether I’m treating a newborn or managing a chronic condition in an adult, my goal is always the same: to provide evidence-based care with empathy, integrity, and excellence. I believe in prevention, not just treatment. I believe in teamwork between doctor and patient, family and provider. And I believe that quality care begins with trust.
At the heart of it all, I am here to serve with clinical skill, cultural sensitivity, and a deep passion for helping people live healthier, fuller lives."
