As a primary care doctor for over 20 years, I put great emphasis in developing and maintaining a trusting partnership with my patients as we work together to maintain and restore health. I am especially interested in the many facets of preventive medicine, particularly mind-body medicine--which uses techniques such as breathing exercises, meditation and guided imagery to augment more traditional medical approaches.
