My goal is to comprehensively address every aspect of your child’s growth, wellness, and illnesses, dedicating more than 15 minutes for each physical or sick visit. You and your provider should never feel rushed when caring for your children. A well visit should be scheduled for an entire hour. A sick visit should take as long as it needs to.
When you reach out, you will have direct access to your physician, eliminating the need for front office staff or intermediaries. I value personal connection with my patients and am dedicated to being there when you need me.
In the face of challenging illness, I promise not to leave you with a list of phone numbers and best wishes. I am here to provide unwavering support and care throughout your journey. I will do whatever it takes to ensure you can find and see any specialists or get any help you need. It should not be left up to you to do so during difficult times. I will expedite appointments with specialists to the full extent of our ability.
As an ethical healthcare provider, I respect your autonomy. My approach is to counsel you, not coerce, empowering you to make informed decisions about your child’s well-being. This includes decisions regarding vaccination.
I promise not to take or distribute free samples from pharmaceutical companies. While samples may be beneficial in some cases, I have decided establishing a “quid pro quo” relationship with pharmaceutical companies is unethical. It is impossible to eliminate bias with prescribing unless there are no expectations from distributors, even informal ones. Netflix’s series “Painkiller” illustrates this quite well. I will not accept free meals or any other perks from these companies. I will, however, still allow them to provide presentations to us so I may be abreast of all treatments available to you.
I will be working with affiliate marketing strategies and selling some medical products. I will always inform you if I have a financial incentive tied to anything I recommend (such as books, an AED, first aid kit, etc.)
Any book, movie, T.V. show, or social media channel recommended by me will be personally and thoroughly reviewed before doing so. Yes, I really do subject myself to media directed at babies and toddlers to make sure it is safe and beneficial to your kids.
