Whether in training, as an emergency room physician, or as a nuclear medicine physician, I have tried my best to put my patients’ health and wellbeing first. That’s why I decided to grow into areas where I felt there was a significant need, unhealthy weight and men’s hormone deficiencies. My clinic is online assuring convenience. I do not sell products that I believe you could get elsewhere for less, but will give you advice on which supplements or non-prescription medications I believe may help. I am a physician first and Helios is a clinic first, business second, and the way I give you my time and attention shows it. I just want to treat you the way I would my friends and family.”
