Story
Dr. Carpenter's philosophy centers on four key elements: "I try to listen carefully and recognize unique circumstances that each patient-family dyad brings to transplant. I like to empower patients and families with relevant evidence-based knowledge obtained from research and clinical experience so that they may better navigate available options and difficult treatment decisions. I strive to maintain an open communication style that facilitates the necessary ongoing partnership of patient and relevant healthcare providers. Lastly, patient quality of life remains a focus of any therapy plan that I offer."
