Philosophy

As a nurse practitioner, my philosophy of care centers on both holistic and individualized approach to patient well-being. I strongly believe in treating the whole person, not just their physical ailments. I strive to address, the emotional, mental, physical and social aspects of a patient's well being to promote overall health and quality of life. I utilize active listening, kindness, compassion, empathy and respect in every interaction. I am committed to high-quality care by ensuring it is grounded in the most current and effective medical knowledge through continuous learning and application of evidence based guidelines. I believe in empowering patients through education, helping them make informed decisions that align with their own personal values and preferences. I advocate for my patient's needs within the healthcare system, ensuring they receive the necessary support and resources.
