I treat each patient as I would want myself or my family to be treated. I walk patients and their families through the diagnosis and the next steps to get the optimal outcome. Depending on patient goals and desires, that may be surgery and for others that may be a whole host of other treatment options, such as medicine, radiation, or clinical trials. Ultimately, my goal is to treat the whole patient and help act as a guide for them to achieve their desires and goals in their healthcare.
