About me
For me, the key to providing successful health care is listening. Hearing and understanding my patients’ issues and helping them find a solution is my passion. I particularly strive to make a difference in the daily lives of individuals with chronic disease. As a member of the Rheumatology team, I am dedicated to making a difference for those who suffer from chronic conditions such as inflammatory arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. If I can succeed in making a difference, that is the most rewarding thing I can do.
