About

Philosophy of Care

Every surgeon has a core desire to solve problems. Some problems are simple, and others, such as cancer, are less so. I am committed to guiding patients through the entire process of finding solutions to their problems, however complex they may be. I use modern technology and minimally invasive technique to do so, and I am passionate about integrating surgical needs into the bigger picture of who a person is.
