About James Bates, MD
I was inspired to become a physician as it is a challenging profession with immense personal satisfaction. I always strive for excellence in the practice of medicine and surgery and provide compassion in caring for all patients. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, exploring the outdoors, incorporating adventures, sailing and water sports.
