“I have been a physician for 30 years. I love being a doctor. My hero growing up was Marcus Welby, M.D. on television. I have always felt that it was important to be respectful of patients, to be on time when seeing patients, and have them be on time to see me. My office honors mutual respect. I believe that it is important to teach people about their bodies and how they work, to teach them how injuries happen, and how the body tries to compensate for an injury. Finally, I discuss how I might or might not be able to help.”

“It is clear to me that you can’t fool people. I am honest and if I don’t know an answer, I say that I don’t know the answer. No doctor can help every patient. I try my best to be honest and respect each being. The sign outside my office has a subtitle and it says: CARING IN THE LANGUAGE OF EVERY BODY.”
