Idea of Care

I want my patients to feel welcome and able to ask questions when they come to see me. I do my best to explain the benefits and alternatives for every procedure in a way that is understandable for them. Obesity, like other chronic illnesses, is complex and requires a multidisciplinary treatment approach in order to achieve long term success.
