Idea of Care

I believe in and practice patient-centered radiology by providing efficient and high-quality imaging interpretations and interventions while working in a team-based model including other radiologists, technologists, clinicians and most importantly, the patients. I make myself readily available for questions and consultations from providers and patients as part of the health care team and work to demonstrate my passion for breast imaging and intervention.
