“The practice of medicine is an art, not a trade; a calling, not a business; a calling in which your heart will be exercised equally with your head.”
– William Osler MD
At Family Healthcare of Fairfax, patient panel sizes are significantly smaller than a traditional practice allowing more time to build closer and more meaningful connections and to be available when patients need us most. I strongly believe in utilizing time-honored traditions of medicine such as taking a thorough history and performing a detailed physical examination.
I believe my approach is calm, honest, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I strive to keep abreast of the latest that modern medicine has to offer with regards to diagnostics and treatment. My ultimate goal is a respectful and collaborative patient relationship where we work in close partnership to obtain the best clinical outcomes, quality of life, and overall health in a way that is unrushed and comfortable.
