My Philosophy
I am trained and Board certified as an obstetrician and gynecologist, yet I embrace the philosophy of caring for the whole person, acknowledging and honoring the importance of body, mind and spirit. My role is to provide care, instruction and guidance to help each patient achieve and maintain optimal health. Appreciation of every patient as a unique individual is key for supporting success in each patient's endeavor.
