I chose to go into health care because I do not believe that people should have to live with pain. I specifically enjoy working with people who are experiencing low back pain. Most people have had low back pain at some point in their lives, and it is very regarding to educate each on the prevention of future pain as wells as the treatment of current issues. During a visit, patients can expect me to listen, understand their needs and make my best effort at correcting their symptoms. It is always helpful when patients come prepared to discuss different things that may increase or decrease their symptoms so that we can work together, as a team, to lessen pain and improve quality of life."
