Michael J. Mitchell, MD, MBA

Philosophy of Care

“Despite the sometimes hurried pace in the Emergency Department, I strive to make each of my patients feel that they are my highest priority. I want all my patients to feel respected and heard during their visit. It is an honor and a privilege for patients to put their trust in me for their medical emergencies and those of their family members.”
