Care Philosophy

"I believe quality care is derived from an open line of communication between patient and provider and I see each doctor-patient interaction as a partnership in which both parties contribute towards a common goal.  In my case, the goal is to provide accurate and up to date information regarding each patient's condition to help them better understand their prognosis and make individualized treatment plans that are in line with their personal values."

Research Interests

During his fellowship, Dr. Paridon completed research examining the cellular pathways involved in ovarian cancer cell death.
