“As an infectious disease specialist, I pursue a ‘Sherlock Holmes’ approach to diagnosis and treatment. A key aspect is thorough, detailed patient history. I add diagnostic connections with a physical exam, test results, and reports from other professionals to find answers and to develop a plan to treat the whole patient. I involve patients actively during medical care and value their input.”
