Q: What do you think sets you apart in your field?
A: Our office offers the personalized experience of a concierge practice—without the concierge price tag. My care philosophy is centered on building and nurturing a compassionate partnership with each patient. This means listening attentively, closely monitoring outcomes and ensuring that every patient is an active participant in their individualized treatment plan.
Q: What additional protection against COVID should immunocompromised patients consider?
A: In addition to the new vaccines now available, a newly FDA-approved IV medication has been specifically indicated to help prevent COVID in high-risk patients. We are proud to be among the first practices in the nation offering this treatment, administered in our on-site infusion suite.
Q: How has your specialty evolved over your 30 years in practice?
A: We now have a deeper understanding of how the immune system functions in each disease, enabling earlier, more precise diagnoses and targeted treatment with biologic agents. Our office also offers a comfortable outpatient alternative to hospital settings for patients needing infusion therapy for inflammatory conditions of the eyes, gut, and nervous system.
