Philosophy:
“Patients deserve the personal attention of their physician who should partner with them
in forming a personalized diagnosis and treatment plan. Many orthopedic surgeons in
this community have abandoned the traditional doctor/patient relationship, choosing to
provide only the most technical aspects of their patients’ care. Most of the evaluation,
examination and consultation is provided by an assistant with considerably less training
and experience. In this model of care, surgeons do not see their patients in the hospital
after surgery, nor do they provide personal aftercare in the office. I believe, on the other
hand, that the doctor/patient relationship is crucial to a patient’s care. In my view,
personal interaction between a physician and patient provides the best opportunity for
proper diagnosis and treatment, along with the best opportunity for a good outcome.
Every patient deserves and should expect nothing less.”
