Philosophy

"I recognize the struggle that comes with being in the hospital, not just for my patients, but for their families. I strive for compassionate, inclusive, evidence-based care while focusing on communication. I actively listen and strongly advocate for my patients, which often includes considering how their life outside the hospital impacts the care we deliver."
