My philosophy is to provide kind and compassionate care that focuses not only on relief of anxiety and suffering but to help patients to return to activities that give them quality of life, and to do so in the least invasive manner as possible. We need to refocus medicine on health and healing rather than disease and treatment. Human beings are more than physical bodies. The body is capable of returning to a state of health. Medicine should be healing oriented and take into account the whole person, (body, mind and spirit) as well as all aspects of lifestyle.
