What is your biggest ambition?
My biggest ambition is to expand my current practice and open a multi-disciplinary men’s health clinic. In addition to urological concerns, patients would be able to be seen by various specialists as a one-stop-shop. The way we practise medicine now is very siloed; that is, specialists often treat one disease process, however, most ailments are all interconnected. Being able to see multiple specialists in the same centre, during the same visit, would really improve care for patients and reduce the time burden of seeing multiple healthcare professionals on different days.
“The biggest influence I’ve had in my current practice and career is my wife, Jillian. She is also a physician and has pursued additional training in holistic medicine and mindfulness-based stress reduction”
Who or what was your biggest influence as a professional?
The biggest influence I’ve had in my current practice and career is my wife, Jillian. She is also a physician and has pursued additional training in holistic medicine and mindfulness-based stress reduction. On a personal level, she has taught me the safety in setting boundaries, the cognitive load of patient care and how to be present both at work and at home. Professionally, she has inspired local clinical trials in mindfulness, international courses in chronic pain management and has transformed the way I approach patients regarding their quality-of-life concerns.
What’s left for you to do — professionally or personally?
Along with two colleagues, we will be launching Thrive Urology and Wellness clinic in January 2025. We will be focusing on restoring health, confidence and comfort for patients, and will be taking a more holistic approach to empower patients and improve quality of life.
Let’s say you’re marooned on a desert island — what’s the one thing you need with you?
As a Survivor fan, I would want a flint and a knife to survive as long as possible. I’m fairly confident I could build a fire for warmth and live off of coconuts for a while.
And finally, what’s your guilty pleasure?
Definitely sour candy. Just can’t help myself. I could snack on these relentlessly until I get a stomachache.
