Practice Statement

I believe there is no more intimate medical relationship than between a woman and her gynecologist. That's why I think you have a right to know what I believe and for you to understand the medical issues that are important to you. I believe we are in this together. Gynecological care involves the active involvement of the patient. Medical education is an ongoing task. It belongs to both of ... us. It is my job to bring the most current gynecological care available, and I pledge myself to that task. I believe that knowledgeable patients are the best patients. That's why you will find an extensive collection of health literature and videotapes to assist in your education and informed consent in my office. I believe that physicians have the obligation to ease the minds of patients as well as heal their bodies. That's why I allow time during each office visit for questions and answers.
I believe that a child’s coming into this world is a family event, and I encourage the active participation of all of the members of the family, especially the father, throughout the birth experience. I believe the birth of a child is a miracle, still, and feel privileged to be a part of it. If you have any questions about my office practice or the health care services I provide, I will be happy to answer them personally. Thank you.
