After a childhood full of pediatric otolaryngology diagnoses, I’m deeply dedicated to the specialty. It’s an honor to care for patients in this delicate time in their lives.

I know how important it is to feel heard, understood and educated on specific diagnoses and procedures. That is why I always listen to patients and their families first. Using that insight, I can better determine the right next steps clinically and share that information using clear language.

Education is empowering. When a patient has a better grasp of the nature of their ailment or symptoms, it might not feel as scary or foreign to them. It can be a relief for both the patient and myself! That mutual understanding is a core part of my philosophy of care. Specialized medicine must have a holistic approach. It’s why I foster a caring, supportive role in my patients’ lives.
