Biography

Philosophy of Care

Several years ago, I read the book, Better by Dr. Atul Gawande. I took to heart his idea that in medicine, there is no good enough and so I continually strive to be better and to provide my patients with the best possible care every day. I love being a part of an interdisciplinary group of providers at Minnesota Oncology who are united in their efforts to improve patient care and outcomes every day.
