“I place great value on open communication and shared decision-making.”

My Approach

My approach as a pediatric surgeon is rooted in compassion, precision, and collaboration. I wholeheartedly believe that each child deserves a personalized approach that addresses their unique needs, delivered with the highest standard of excellence and safety. Building trust with patients and their families is essential, ensuring that everyone feels informed, supported, and confident throughout the surgical journey. Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams is key to achieving the best outcomes. Above all, I aim to blend meticulous surgical expertise with empathy, treating every patient not merely as a case, but as an individual child with a story, a future, and a family who rely on my care.
