My Care Philosophy
As a primary care provider, I believe care should be client-centered by working with the client to develop an individualized treatment plan that will optimize health outcomes while maintaining client satisfaction. Everyone deserves high-quality, evidence-based, and holistic care that is up-to-date and guided by the client to help ensure that their goals, values, and beliefs are incorporated into this treatment plan. Client-guided care is achieved by welcoming communication with active listening in an environment that is non-judgment and comfortable.
