Care Philosophy:  “First, do no harm; second, listen in a genuinely caring manner.  Clarify misunderstandings with detailed explanations and to try to provide reassurance as appropriate.  Identify individualized problems but craft solutions with patient participation in order to bolster self reliance.  Harness the power of the patient’s positive mind.  Never forget that exercise and nutrition are also medicine.”
