Personal Profile My approach to patient care is centered on the patient in the diagnosis and management of rheumatic disease. I work with the principle that participation in treatment decisions and responsibility for care is a joint effort between physician and patients. I recognize the importance of quality of life for patients with chronic diseases and strive to achieve a balance of work, exercise and interests in life for my patients. I also maintain an active interest in the education of primary care physicians in the field of Rheumatology.
