Each of us is a unique. It doesn’t matter if we’re talking about what we look like, who we are, or how we live. We are all beautifully unique.

This approach is true ... even in medicine. Every patient is unique. You, or your loved one, may have been diagnosed with a heart condition that is rare or one that is relatively common. In either case, it’s not just the diagnosis that determines the best treatment; instead, it is the combination of the diagnosis, the unique medical history, and unique physical, mental, and emotional characteristics.

Every doctor approaches patients differently. This is part of what makes them unique.

I approach patients as whole human beings. I engage the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of my patients, and their families, into creating the best possible treatment for their specific diagnosis. I employ the latest technology to assist me in doing my job. I continue to create new surgical techniques with the goal of improving outcomes, minimizing incision sizes and reducing recovery times. I love my job and what I can do for my patients. I do take it personally. I put my heart and soul into it every day, and I appreciate your considering me for such an important role.
