Practice Philosophy:

It is my privilege treating patients with life-threatening malignancies. I take the time to ensure the patient & family understand the nature of his/her disease and management options. I also strive to understand the individual patient's needs and goals at different stages of his/her life. More so than not, both the patient and I find it a mutually gratifying experience overcoming the challenges he/she has to face. With the latest technology and therapeutic options coming to the clinic every day, I feel more empowered than ever with the necessary tools to help my patients.

    He spent more time telling me about his experience with Covid in 2020, than listening to me. I did try to tell him, he responded " well, you seem to be having a lot of things wrong" with you.
