“I most enjoy the doctor/patient interaction and being able to offer the best treatment plan possible. The advancements in hearing health, along with less invasive surgeries and staying current, also make my profession a joy. I try to focus on the reason the patient is seeing me and what they hope to go away with. Sometimes that means relief of symptoms. Sometimes it means reassurance that there is nothing seriously wrong. I explain complex issues with diagrams and models and try to involve family members when appropriate.”
