Philosophy of Care
As an advocate for children's health, I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment for my patients and their families. As a provider I encourage open discussions regarding diagnosis, treatment and management, and focus on providing an individualized treatment plan that best benefits my patients. I enjoy building lasting relationships with my patients and work hard to displace any fears or misconceptions regarding their endocrine issues.
Many endocrine conditions are chronic and require ongoing close follow up. I am committed to providing up-to-date evidenced based medicine and ongoing education to help patients and families take control of their health.
