Philosophy of Care
The practice of surgery is an art and a science. I believe in providing evidence-based
surgical care with compassion and personalization for each of my patients. I am passionate
about providing excellent surgical care for a variety of challenging surgical diseases,
and therefore specialize in cancer surgery and advanced laparoscopy. This includes
surgical oncology for breast cancer and colorectal cancer, as well as laparoscopic
treatment for a variety of general surgery diseases including gallbladder and hernia
surgery. I also provide emergency surgical care for diseases including appendicitis,
bowel obstructions, and bowel perforations.
I embrace the complexities
and challenges of my career as a surgeon. I also enjoy spending time with my amazing
husband and two sons. We love our time as a family cooking, traveling, and enjoying
all life has to offer. I look forward to meeting you and your family to discuss your
questions and concerns and to decide together the best surgical plan for your health.
