Philosophy of Care

A diagnosis of cancer presents you with complex decisions. I feel very privileged to be able to help guide and inform you, as we decide together, on the best approach using the most current knowledge and experience available.
Although my goal for you is to provide the greatest chance for cure or long lasting remission, I also value the importance of minimizing the long-term impact of therapy on your well-being.
