Patient’s don’t always have a problem that follows the textbook and just because I know how to do a procedure doesn’t mean that you need one. I strive to understand the nature of your problem and how it affects your pursuit of a happy and healthy life so that a treatment plan that fits your needs can be developed. I have been in practice for 35 years and I know what works and what doesn’t but I’m still open to new ideas and concepts as I further my medical education for my own curiosity and the betterment of my patients.
