Patient Care Philosophy

My journey into bariatric medicine began when I had my sleeve gastrectomy in 2015. Having firsthand witnessed the positive impact my providers made on my entire wellbeing has fueled my passion to help my patients through their weight loss journey by either medical or surgical weight loss, and sometimes both! Every day that I am entrusted with helping you through the joys and struggles of weight loss is an honor and I look forward to celebrating all of the victories with you.
