A CU Medicine provider.
I am dedicated to warm, compassionate and individualized care for each patient. Cancer care can be very complicated, and it is important to me that my patients are informed and educated partners in whatever treatment they chose to receive. I offer patient-tailored treatment based upon the latest research experience in the field.
