Personal Statement:
MY PRIMARY AREA OF PRACTICE EXPERTISE IS IN "DISEASE AND SURGERY OR THE BREAST."

Clinical Interests:
I have chosen to specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of all breast conditions because proper care takes focus and diligent attention to detail. The mountain of information can be difficult to sort out, and in this new era of managed health care, women often are not given enough time and information to deal with their needs effectively and efficiently. We offer state of the art diagnostics and treatment for every possible disease and condition of the breast. It is my lifes work, my passion and it is my goal to continue life long learning so that we may offer the best care anywhere.
