Patient Care Philosophy

A cancer diagnosis will flip anyone’s life upside down, but the human spirit is resilient. People always find the strength to overcome adversity. My job is to first make sure you know exactly what we are up against. After that, we will tackle cancer in an organized and comprehensive way.

Personalized oncology with targeted therapy and immunotherapy will continue to change how we treat cancer. There has never been more optimism and positive outlook in the history of cancer.
