Philosophy of Care

"There is a continuity of care in vascular surgery that allows me to build relationships with patients over time. I always aim to establish trust and make it easy for them to relax, talk, and feel heard. Sometimes patients come in for one reason and we uncover others. I believe that …this–plus technical expertise and keen collaboration with colleagues–delivers optimal outcomes."
