My Approach to Healthcare
My approach to medicine is to provide excellent clinical care to my patients and educate learners so that they are prepared to do the same for their future patients. My goal is that each learner I interact with will feel not only clinically prepared but also grow their knowledge in anesthesia and critical care medicine. I also understand that patients are likely at the most vulnerable moments in their lives so I must pair a humanistic approach with the highest clinical care possible.
