I believe in estab­lish­ing a strong patient-physi­cian rela­tion­ship and involv­ing my patients in their care. I believe in patient edu­ca­tion and under­stand­ing of their med­ical prob­lems. I prac­tice all aspects of inter­nal med­i­cine and have par­tic­u­lar inter­ests in dia­betes, hyper­ten­sion, cho­les­terol, and pre­ven­tive care.

May is Melanoma Aware­ness month. One in five Amer­i­cans will devel­op skin can­cer in their life­time. For­tu­nate­ly, skin can­cer is pre­ventable. You can reduce your risk for Melanoma and oth­er skin can­cers by tak­ing pro­tec­tive mea­sures when out in the sun, per­form­ing self-skin exams to look for any abnor­mal­i­ties and keep­ing up with your annu­al full body skin exams. When found ear­ly, skin can­cer is high­ly treat­able. Click here to sched­ule with your Duly Der­ma­tol­o­gist for your annu­al full body skin exam.
