"I believe the practice of medicine is a marriage of the best science and critical thinking with a healthy partnership between doctor and patient. I have always felt that the time I spend listening to you and working together to determine the best course of action is the best medicine, achieving the best outcomes.
As you know, there is an important distinction between good and optimal medical care. While good care meets the government and medical guidelines set forth for standard of care, in my opinion, optimal care should exceed these standards to allow me to assist my patients to achieve the best quality of life. Throughout my years as a doctor in private practice, my goal has always been to optimize health in each individual at every stage of life."
