On The Art Of Practice Of Medicine:

It is an art and a process of balancing evidence based medicine in combination with individualized care of the patient with open communication with the patient as well as participation of the patient to achieve the best health possible. I work extensively with my patients to help them prevent medical problems and complications of their medical conditions, thereby improving their quality of life.

ON THE ART OF PRACTICE OF MEDICINE:

I believe in a team work approach to patient care. It is important to establish a trusting

rapport between the Patient and the Practitioner.  The patient should feel comfortable

asking questions and understanding the treatment approach and goals so that together

we can achieve the best possible medical outcome. Patient accountability is a very

important part of the care plan and helps with the treatment of current problems and

also prevention of future medical problems. I believe in strong communication with my

Supervising Physician as I also work to be an integral part of  this medical practice.

Thank you for letting me be a part of your health care.
