My patient care philosophy focuses on providing thoughtful care utilizing evidence-based medicine with a holistic approach. I take into consideration the physical symptoms and also the effects of a person’s lifestyle and environment on their health. Integrating evidence-based medicine ensures that treatments are grounded in the best available research to help optimize outcomes.
