our patients desire through the quickest, most sustainable path. In a nutshell, my team and I strive to empower the patient to be self sufficient at the conclusion of finishing their treatment in our office.” What type of skill set do you possess which makes you an effective leader? “I am an effective leader by putting assembling, innovative and cutting edge technologies into one location. This gives our patients the unique advantage of availing themselves to a wide spectrum of evidence-based breakthrough technologies. By leading in our region with top of the line and best-in-class modalities, we are able to deliver on our core values while allowing the patients to reap the benefits. I strive to be a straight shooter and deliver the technical jargon through communication that is presented in plain language and easy to understand. This allows patients to make educated and informed decisions.” How can the healthcare region be improved? “We need to stop making patient care a ‘turf war’ between various ideologies emanating from the spectrum of different specialties. We need to recognize the legitimacy of each other’s areas of expertise and cooperate in a non-biased referral manner so the patients receive the ultimate benefit.” What do you do for fun? “I’m an avid Cleveland Browns sports fan. I enjoy anything nature and have a boxer who is arguably the most handsome boxer in the world and is treated like a family member. Spending time with family and friends and creating meaningful memories is always important.”
