I strive to build a relationship with my patients and their families and engage in a shared decision-making model of care while adhering to the principles of compassion and clear communication. Any treatment decision must be mutually agreed upon and children and their families should feel engaged in and fully understand the plan of care. I am passionate about improving a child's quality of life and health and firmly believe that partnering with the child and their family is the best way to achieve a positive outcome.
