"William Osler once said, 'A good physician treats the disease, but a great physician treats the patient with the disease'. My goal as a physician is to treat the patient with the disease. For that, I believe a proper understanding of the patient, along with their family, is of utmost importance. That is my philosophy in practicing medicine."
