About me
Being able to help people and make a positive impact on their lives is what I love most about my job. One of the most important aspects of quality care is education. By involving my patients and their personal support system, I can help ease some of the stress associated with vascular illness. For me, good care is about listening to and addressing my patients' concerns. We can develop a treatment plan that fits their needs and lifestyle by working together.
