Care Philosophy: My care philosophy is to treat the entire patient. That means that in addition to discussing fertility, I think that it is important to focus on nutrition, exercise, stress management, supplementation, and mental health. Wellness and mindset are very important in my life, and I strive to make them a part of my treatment plan. I am fortunate that my wife is a psychiatrist and certified yoga teacher who shares the belief that marrying traditional medicine with wellness results in better outcomes. Of course, I also think that it is paramount to stay up to date with the most recent research in fertility care. I attend and present my research at fertility conferences both nationally and internationally.
