Best part of my work or a patient visit: I am very passionate about patient education and believe that is the most important part of the patient experience. It not only improves patient outcomes but also empowers the patient to take charge and improve their overall health and well-being. My goal during every patient visit is to ensure that the patient is fully aware of their diagnosis and understands what my plan is to improve their ear, nose and throat issues.
Practice philosophy: My practice philosophy is focused on providing high quality and patient-centered care. I believe that every patient has a story to tell and it is my job to be an active listener and an effective communicator in order to full understand their journey.
