Patient Care Philosophy
“Being diagnosed with and treated for cancer is one of the most arduous journeys that any person will experience. Every patient and every cancer is different. As a radiation oncologist, my goal is to guide patients through this difficult time by providing the most compassionate, personalized care possible and making sure they have access to the latest, innovative clinical trials and state-of-art technology.”
