"When I decided to become a surgeon I knew that I was entering a profession where I could make an impact on people's lives. This is a demanding job, but it also often provokes the satisfaction of seeing people get well. My concern is that due to the increasing cost of healthcare that many patients delay treatments. I strive to work with my patients, informing them of treatment options, providing education about the disease process and support before and after surgery. I am committed to excellent patient care, maintaining a working relationship with my medical colleagues and providing the best care I can for this community and its citizens."
