When I was 22 and chemotherapy was in its infancy, my father died of cancer. I wanted to help make cancer therapy more effective and bearable than it was for him. Having worked at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center since 2000, I treasure the community and my patients, past and present. Those relationships are the most rewarding part of my job. That may explain why my patients often express that I listen well and make them feel heard. When family members are involved, I extend that courtesy to them so we can address the prognosis and treatment together. As an oncologist, I try to achieve the best result possible for each patient. Care plans must fit the individual, whether that means giving curative therapy with an acceptable level of side effects to those who are curable or giving the longest and best quality of life to someone whose condition is incurable. I am committed to improving my patients’ well-being. And although I will be leaving the profession in November 2023, I know my connections to this community will remain as strong as ever.
