What can a patient expect when they have you as a doctor?

I strive to provide the best quality of care and most up-to-date treatment for each patient. I am always available to provide as much supportive care that is needed to help them in their fight against cancer.

Trust. The patient must have confidence that the physician will do his or her best to help, and I work very hard to earn and build that trust.

What hobbies or activities do you enjoy when you're not working?

I love to travel. I also enjoy gardening and just spending time with my family.

The most rewarding part of my job is to see my patients’ lives restored after beating cancer.
