Internal Medicine

 I believe in empowering my patients to lead healthful wholesome lives. It takes a good understanding of the pathophysiology of disease processes, varied diagnostic options, and multiple treatment options for us to attain good health. I believe the attainment of positive health is a partnership achieved through good communication.
