Writing this first section on my Home page, I am struggling with how to describe my practice; what I do and how I do it. I guess the best thing that I can say from the outset is that I am TRANSPARENT. What you see is what you get. If you have listened to me on my radio show on News/Talk 92.3 KTAR then the guy that you hear on-air is very much what I am like in person. Before any other consideration is whether we are compatible. We have to like and trust each other. If you cannot listen to my show live, then listen to a podcast on this site or check out one of my videos.
Being your physician is an honor. I am not just the guy who writes an occasional prescription or orders a diagnostic test. I see myself as your guide through a very confusing health care system - your educator, consultant and advocate. I want to empower you to make the right, informed choices. Health care can be dangerous and costly. There is a lot of technology, medications and procedures that appear to be right for you (They dazzle!), but in reality they are unnecessary. My job is to help you sort out reality from pure sizzle.
Another comment I should make right off is that the staff in my office shares my philosophy. Their focus is taking care of you. Admittedly, that can be a daunting task because the amount of paperwork required by insurance companies, etc. is simply overwhelming. To be honest, I do not know how everyone in the office manages to be so attentive to patients and their families when they are challenged everyday by a health care bureaucracy that has not improved despite what you might hear in the media. One thing is for sure, every day they are cheery, committed and attentive to the practice patients. Everyone in my office is not just working because it is their job. Instead we are all united with a passion to care for you.

Please do not wear any perfume or cologne for your visit. Many of my patients are allergic to fragrance and cigarette smoke. I thank you in advance for your consideration of their wellbeing, and look forward to helping you soon!
I have reached a decision with regard to my practice direction. It comes out of the frustration of treating patients for diseases without getting to the core cause of their problem or dancing around the real elements of disease prevention and getting nowhere. Heart disease is the number one killer in this country...
It is definitely worth considering acupuncture when you are trying to stop smoking. Smoking is a difficult addiction to quit and the options are limited...
