I believe in patient-cen­tered” med­i­cine. My goal is to pro­vide an out­stand­ing endocrinol­o­gy ser­vice at which each and every patient is viewed as a unique indi­vid­ual whose treat­ment should revolve around his or her unique health­care needs and per­son­al­ized goals. Such ser­vice, when com­bined with med­ical deci­sions based on the patient’s pref­er­ences and up-to-date sci­en­tif­ic research, pro­vides the great­est outcomes.
