His work focuses on helping patients understand how their scan findings relate to their symptoms. This is especially important in pain medicine, where MRI, ultrasound and X-ray findings may not always match the pain pattern.

Philosophy

Our shared philosophy

Good pain care starts with listening carefully. Patients should understand what is likely causing their pain, what treatment options exist, and what the benefits and limitations of each option are. Our role is to provide clear guidance, not rushed decisions.
