About

Philosophy of Care

My decision to become a cardiologist started with a passion for improving the lives of my patients over a lifespan. I believe in the humanity and dignity of every patient and seek to provide care in a respectful manner. No two people are the same and I work to individualize care to meet of the needs of each patient I encounter with care and compassion. This starts with developing a patient-physician relationship built on trust.

I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Denby looking after my heart. She is pleasant, an excellent listener, and perceptive. She relates information about my heart and medical issues in a conversational way — she speaks in terms I can understand as a lay person, no foggy medical terminology that I have to decipher at my own risk. I get a clear understanding of my current heart situation, and some idea of what I might expect as time goes by given my age and health background. Dr. Denby’s assistant, Beth, is also friendly, competent, and gets the appointment started in a pleasant, professional manner.
