Everyone has a different approach to their own health. Some are very private, while others are more of an open book. But when it comes to taking control of one's health, it's much easier with trust. I love getting to know people in my everyday life, and doing this as a physician is truly a privilege. Sharing in their experience and offering some of my own, creates that special physician-patient relationship. With that established, I feel its easier to have a partnership in the patients health, making sure we are moving forward on the same page.
