About Me

care philosophy

I strive to communicate with patients and their families so all understand the disease process at hand and what needs to be done to address it. I strive to discuss the details of surgery, the risks involved and the alternative options.

biography

My personal goal is provide patients with the best possible care in cardiac and thoracic surgery. Where it is possible, I strive to achieve these goals via the most minimally invasive approach possible to minimize patient discomfort and expedite their recovery.
