Philosophy of Care
As a rheumatologist, I have the privilege to work with a diverse group of patients from different age groups, race, gender, taking care of a variety of chronic inflammatory arthritis and systemic autoimmune diseases. I believe communication and trust, as well as, mutual respect are critical to the physician-patient relationship. My goal is to provide patients with data driven up-to-date information about their disease and treatment options and to be an advocate for their health and well being.
