Biography

I think knowledge of the patient and his or her significant relationships are the key to forming a therapeutic alliance. I want to improve the health of others and provide the best physical and psychological care. I evaluate and treat patients, keeping in mind their entire family, cultural and personal context. Often, treatment is a process, not a single visit by a patient. Mutual trust is critical to successful treatment.

I enjoy spending my spare time with my family, doing almost any outdoor activity, reading, learning and tennis.
