What is your personal philosophy on patient care?
”My personal philosophy is that patient care should be centered around the patient’s own goals and priorities. I believe information should be shared honestly and clinical options presented proactively. When a patient is navigating a complex situation, such as a cancer diagnosis, it is absolutely necessary that their medical providers are compassionate, available, and have access to the resources needed to provide the best care possible.”
