Patient / Medical Philosophy
I am interested in all aspects of general adult medical care. Communication with the patient regarding their condition is essential to develop patient rapport, understanding of their disease, and compliance with medical regimens. A prudent approach to preventive care must be taken based on solid evidence of which tests, procedures and regimens make a difference in maintaining health.
