I believe in treat­ing patients with respect and offer­ing up to date and safe care. I want my patients to feel relaxed and well cared for. I lis­ten to my patients and give them real­is­tic expec­ta­tions on treat­ment options. I val­ue my job per­for­mance based on refer­rals from my exist­ing patients who felt I have tak­en good care of them or fam­i­ly mem­bers. See­ing improve­ment in their qual­i­ty of life is why I come to work hap­py in the morning.
