I like every aspect of Pulmonology and of caring for patients both in a clinic setting and a hospital setting. As a pulmonologist I specialize in diseases and disorders of the lungs, so I see a variety of patient from those with COPD to those with asthma, pneumonia, people with unexplained coughs or shortness of breath, lung cancer and pulmonary hypertension. I like the long-term relationships that develop as part of pulmonary care and also the special procedures I can do to help my patients. Finding the right pulmonologist is important, so I want to meet with people face-to-face and get to see if we are a good fit. I am an easy going doctor. I don't wear a watch and I don't watch the clock. I try to care for my patients as I would care for my own family. I speak to them as a partner in their health care. We make decisions together and I want them to know that I am on their side. I am not just trying to hurry up and get to the next case.
