Bio
What techniques or procedures do you use in your practice?
Osteopathic manipulation, laceration repairs, skin biopsies.
What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?
My approach to care is to form a teammate type relationship with the patient, inform them of all choices and options, and come up with a plan of care that should succeed. I follow up and monitor my patients closely. When it comes to chronic disease, I make sure that I educate the patient on the disease so that they are empowered to control it.
What inspired you to become a doctor?
I’ve always had a passion for helping others. There is no better way to help others except to make them feel their best.
