Overview    
In two decades of practicing medicine, I've learned that being a good physician means making a profound commitment. Not simply a commitment to medical excellence, but a commitment of time, effort and personal energy. In other words, a personal commitment to you.

Today, I'm able to provide that level of focus. I call it Personal Medicine, and it's a simple premise. You'll be able to reach me. You won't have to compete for my attention. You'll be seen same-day or next-day. You'll get as much time and attention as you need, and you'll be treated like a person rather than a "clinical entity." In essence, you'll get an intimate doctor-patient relationship.
And you'll be a priority.


Time    
Being a good doctor takes time. Not just years of hands-on experience, but dedication of time to you and to doing what's right for each concern that arises. This careful, communicative and thorough approach is especially important if you have multiple health issues or take medications and are concerned about drug interactions.

No matter what your situation, your health is

too valuable for your healthcare to be rationed out in small bits of time. Or to risk missing an important detail in the interests of speed. Since the number of patients I see is limited, I'm able to focus on wellness rather than illness, and I invest whatever time is necessary to ensure you're getting thorough, focused and highly personal care.

Also, your time is valuable, and you shouldn't have to waste it in a physician's waiting room. For me, Personal Medicine means spending more time with you. For you, it means…

- you'll get flexible scheduling
- you'll get an appointment the same day or the next day
- you'll be seen promptly
- you'll receive your lab results and imaging or specialist reports within 24 hours after I receive them

Care    
I care about my patients, and I believe it's essential to the doctor-patient relationship. It's also the reason I devote my personal energy to your medical care, including gathering the important facts about your health myself, rather than getting it second-hand from several different staff members. My experience has been that people want their doctors to be more closely involved in their health, so I offer a unique level of one-to-one communication and attention that extends beyond the walls of my office. And I make sure I'm accessible to you when you need me:

- you'll have my cell phone number
- you'll have my e-mail address
- I will respond to you personally and promptly
- there will always be a physician on call for emergencies 

  Of course, caring is about more than just ready access. It's about genuine concern for you. It's about thoughtful, thorough medicine. And it's about taking pride in how you're cared for, which means…

- you'll get open, honest communication
- you'll be treated with courtesy and respect
- you'll have a doctor and staff who listen to you
- your healthcare will not be rushed or rationed

Committment    
I'm committed to providing medical excellence, and I'm proud to be able to concentrate resources on you in a way that isn't typical of modern healthcare.

For starters, with far fewer patients, I'm able to spend extra time on communication and providing important information about your individual case, your medical options and ways to improve and protect your health. And in truth, as your needs change, I will educate and inform myself throughout our relationship.

If I believe you need specialized medical attention, I'll tell you. And I'll refer you to a capable physician whom I trust. I'll also stay closely involved in the care you get from other doctors. And if you should be hospitalized, I'll be there to represent your needs.

In order to maintain a complete perspective on your health, I use sophisticated record-keeping systems that manage the details of your medical history. This is a powerful component of Personal Medicine. It allows for effective doctor-to-specialist interaction, complex disease management and coordination of multiple medications and treatments.

 


Our patients receive complimentary beverages and snacks including gourmet coffee that is brewed fresh, daily.

Trust
 
Everyone wants a physician they can trust. That's because trust is the backbone of the doctor-patient relationship.

Throughout my nearly 20 years as a physician, I've worked hard to earn patients' trust and to offer care that's advanced and effective. I've had formal training in several medical disciplines and participated in many nationally significant medical studies. I am also proud to be board-certified in internal medicine, pulmonary medicine, critical-care medicine and sleep-disorders medicine. Not only is it important that I earn your confidence, I believe diverse training and experience increase the breadth of my knowledge and understanding… and the quality of the care I'm able to provide.







With Personal Medicine, my mission is to give you close, careful and thorough medical care. To forge a lasting, communicative relationship that's focused on your needs. To go beyond what's expected and work diligently in the best interests of your health. And to be there when you need me.

I believe time, caring and commitment are the keys to earning earn your trust… and to being an excellent doctor. That's why they will always be priorities in my practice, and so will you.
