Philosophy of Medicine
"My philosophy is to provide patients with the knowledge and understanding they need to make informed decisions about their health. I aim for every woman to leave my office with a clear understanding of her body and the reasons behind my treatment recommendations. I treat each patient with the same care I would extend to my own family and friends. Medicine is ever-evolving, and I am committed to practicing evidence-based medicine while staying current with new research and guidelines."
