Professional Statement
I believe a successful patient-doctor relationship begins with being an effective listener and providing the patient time to fully explain their concern. In doing so, I'm able to better understand the patient's concern, so that I can offer a more personalized and patient-centered diagnostic and therapeutic plan.
