Practice Philosophy

To act as an advocate for my patients at all times, putting their well-being ahead  of my personal comfort and financial interests, as well as the financial  interests of any third party.

To offer advice and help in the context of each patient’s unique and individual  needs, requests, sensibilities, and belief system. Realizing that each patient  has a different view of the role of Western Medicine in their lives, I agree to  act as a consultant, allowing the patient to decide how I am to fit into their  health care program.

To treat all those who entrust their care to me with respect , and at all times  protect the sanctity and dignity of human life.

To strive toward an open and truthful doctor-patient relationship that fosters  mutual trust and cooperation toward the common goal of improving the quality of  each patient’s life.

To be thorough and relentless in preventing illness and determining the cause of  disease and suffering in all patients who seek my help.

To be accessible and available to patients, and to provide a competent and  responsible staff and back-up coverage.

To recognize that the most powerful tools for healing the human body, mind and  spirit are love and compassion.

In expressing the gratitude I feel for being given the privilege of serving others in the practice of Medicine, I dedicate myself and my clinic to the following objectives
