Information
Monday, Wednesday
I specialize in dealing with patients whose symptoms are suggestive of gastroesophageal reflux disease or swallowing difficulty, especially those in whom prior therapy has not proven successful. I utilize the biopsychosocial model to help understand why patients still have symptoms and personalize a management plan based on patients' individual needs and values.
