Personal Statement
I strive to apply the latest technology, medical evidence and experience to surgery for complex diseases of brain function, including epilepsy, movement disorders and pain.
I am inspired every day by the needs of my patients and by the trust they place in me. I want each of my patients to feel listened to, understood, well-informed and treated respectfully, ethically and with compassion at all times, so that we can make the right decisions together.
My team and I will strive to be available, by your side and guiding you through your entire evaluation and treatment.
