Philosophy of Care
I believe in providing evidence-based NCCN guideline treatment regimens that appropriately fit the needs of each patient, allowing for a balance of patient-focused approach with high standards of care. I am grateful to provide oncology and hematology services in the Four Corners region, which allows the residents of our community to receive care closer to home.
