My Video Profile
"Patients should be the primary decision maker in their care. My role is to educate patients about available options and assist them in determining which is best for them, considering all aspects of their condition and life. I’m a strong advocate for individualized patient care. No one person completely fits the ‘textbook’ and no one particular standardized management usually fits the patient."
