“
“I had a significant medical issue as a teenager that led me to pursue medicine. For my own patients, I begin with a global assessment of their vascular condition and complaint, then I develop a patient-tailored treatment plan and long-term follow-up and management. All of this is done with a professional and compassionate approach, where the patient’s welfare is the first consideration.
I have followed many patients for years. This relationship is important for me, my staff and the patients we serve who have vascular disease, which is a lifelong condition.”
