I believe in a patient-centered, physician-directed approach to medicine with an emphasis on whole person care and prevention. The physician and patient should work as a team in order to come up with an individualized treatment plan to optimize the patient’s physical, social, spiritual and emotional health.
Why did you choose this profession?
I chose this profession because of the opportunity to help patients improve their quality of life.
Hobbies
I enjoy hiking, jogging, spending time with my family and traveling.
