Patient Philosophy:

From my previous practice experience, quality of life of my patients is most important. Quality care means caring for the whole person with physical, emotional and spiritual as well as financial solutions. In order to achieve this goal, it is essential to listen to patients and their family with empathy and patience. Cancer care is currently flooded with new developments and patients are confused with the vast amount of information; my role is assisting them to draw best treatment option  and make full effort for the best possible outcome. I strive to improve my passion to fulfill this goal continuously.
