Commitment to Patient-Centered Care
“Neurology is a fascinating field and it is a privilege to provide care to patients with these conditions. Neurological conditions are complex and it takes a comprehensive evaluation to understand disease processes and find paths to recovery. Shared decision-making is a key part of my practice. Also, in my practice, I explore and utilize the latest scientific evidence and share my thoughts with patients and their families.”
