My Philosophy
“As a medical oncologist who has practiced in Northampton for more than 30 years, I recognize that good care requires good communication. This means listening to patients and families, collaborating with colleagues, and providing our patients with generous support for decision-making in diagnosis and treatment. Our relationships with subspecialists at the Mass General Cancer Center provide a depth of expertise that we can readily pass on to our patients.”
