Patient Care Philosophy

I believe in understanding the specific needs of patients and providing care that is consistent with their goals. As the complexity of cancer treatments evolves, I am an advocate for my patients. I want patients to feel that, yes we are dealing with a difficult diagnosis, but there are options, and I am here for them and am privileged to be on their team.
