I approach patients from the perspective of doctor as teacher- as originally defined 700 years ago. I see every patient encounter as an opportunity to teach them how to heal, to recover, and how to stay well in the future.

I feel she was very thorough in her evaluation of my health issues. I think she went above tracking down some information about what I had been hospitalized for a few months prior to my visit with her. I would like to thank her for her soothing courtesy. It gave me confidence in her.
