About me

My goal is to give patients the type of care I would expect as a patient: care that is supportive and understandable. I spend time with each patient to discuss all the possible treatments paths clearly so that the patient can make an informed choice. As a neurologist for over 35 years, I’ve seen a lot and I want to use that experience and expertise to help people.

I enjoy making a correct diagnosis and effectively treating my patients’ conditions. But what’s equally important to me is working together with a patient and their family to best manage their neurological condition.
