Medical Philosophy and Values

ADVOCACY

Working together, we manage your health needs, not the insurance company.

This involves more than a technical approach with tests and studies, it requires listening and caring.
This is often overlooked in the ‘treat as many as you can’ approach driven by limitations on service from insurance plans.

WELLNESS

An effective physician can practice the art of medicine with as much certainty and professionalism as possible. A successful physician finds time and ways to give back to the community. The successful physician is a leader who has more to teach patients than just medicine; a sage; a rich person (in the fullest sense of the word); a friend, teacher, mentor and a spiritually grounded human being, a person who lives beyond the science of medicine to fully exemplify the spirit of medicine.

Wellness goes beyond the treatment of disease to focus on treating the person.

RELATIONSHIPS

The Art of Medicine exists in the relationship between the patient and the doctor. You are treated with the same care I give my own family.
