The most important part of patient care to me is to improve my patients’ quality of life. Whether I surgically remove a skin cancer or improve the nature of a chronic skin condition, I aim to tailor my treatments around what’s best for the patient from the patient’s perspective. I would never allow a patient to make a bad decision without explaining the outcomes of that decision, but I enjoy spending the time to explain multiple treatment options and letting patients decide among good options.
