A portfolio shows the work. This shows how the professional thinks.

Understand how this professional approaches planning, alternatives, and follow-up.

My approach

I start with what a person wants to preserve, explain reasonable alternatives, and favor staged decisions over aggressive change in one visit.

SubtleFeature-preservingGradual

What patients can expect

  • Educational consultation
  • Collaborative decision-making
  • Conservative treatment planning
  • Written aftercare discussion

When I may recommend against treatment

  • When a requested change is not anatomically realistic.
  • When waiting for an earlier treatment to settle would be more appropriate.
  • When another clinician or specialty would be a better fit.
  • When the risks or maintenance do not align with the person’s stated goals.

Follow-up philosophy

Standard timing
Routine check-in around two weeks, adjusted by treatment
What is included
One routine follow-up included
