About
Philosophy of care
I strongly believe a good physician combines medical knowledge with an ability to forge strong human connections and provides compassionate healing. I will guide you with what science has to offer and help you make health decisions while respecting your viewpoints, experiences and cultural beliefs. I understand the importance of communication in the current health care environment, and will strive to keep you and your family informed every step of the way. I want to approach medicine with the understanding that science can help us make good decisions, but sometimes does not have all the answers.
Why I entered medicine
Since childhood I have loved to care for people. It started with my own family, including my grandparents, who lived with us. That love of caring translated into a love of medicine and became a career. What I also deeply care about is building interpersonal connections based on a foundation of trust, compassion and mutual concern. My career in medicine provides me the perfect platform to pursue my interest while using my knowledge to help others.
Community involvement
I am involved with Meals on Wheels, soup kitchens and local charities focused on education.
Personal interests
I love gardening, nature travel, hiking and spending my free time with my family.
