About me

I enjoy practicing medicine because it allows me to improve my patients' health and help them feel better. My goal is to provide innovative, evidence-based care to all of my patients, regardless of gender, race/ethnicity, or background. I strive to be friendly, approachable, and respectful to my patients. I help them feel at ease by using humor, actively listening, being empathic, and explaining things in simple terms. I help my patients understand their condition and treatment options so that they can make informed decisions about their care. Together, we collaborate to craft a treatment plan based upon their preferences and health goals.
