You are not an average person. Why would you settle for an average doctor?
To have the best care, you need a doctor who is engaged, in love with their profession and willing to take a genuine interest in your life, health and longevity. You want a doctor who is exceedingly well trained in the art and science of medicine. A doctor who works hard to stay ahead of new technology developments to benefit their patients.
Every patient should interview any new doctor they are considering, before entrusting their health and longevity to them. I feel so strongly about this, that on the back of this brochure I list what I believe are the most important questions to ask any new doctor and I give you my answers to
them as well.
I have dedicated my life to being the best doctor I can be for my patients. You will see it in my experience and all the extensive training I have done to stay at the top of my chosen field.
My pledge to my patients is that I will never stop learning new ways to maximize the quality of care I provide.
