About me

Science has always fascinated me. By understanding how our bodies work, I can help people make informed choices about their health. As an otolaryngologist, I answer questions about ear, nose, and throat issues, while guiding patients through their treatment options. Ultimately, I'm happy when my patients feel good about their care experience.

Depending on the patient's age and circumstances, I often engage parents or loved ones in the process. I want everyone involved to understand the issues and options. Regardless of age, I take the time to explain complex topics in a direct and down-to-earth way.

Although I'm very serious about providing the best care possible, I maintain a relaxed and approachable demeanor with my patients. It's a collaborative journey—I may be the guide, but my patients choose how we reach the destination.
