Description

I was taught to 'treat the patient, not just the disease.' Spending time trying to get to know each patient's unique needs and priorities allows me to better individualize the management of each patient's cardiovascular care. This approach helps me develop patient relationships based on mutual trust and this, in turn, helps me be a better doctor to each patient.
