About me

My goal is to provide comprehensive, patient-focused treatment with a strong emphasis on preventive medicine. Drawing from over 15 years of clinical and research experience across various parts of the world, I am dedicated to delivering the best possible multidisciplinary care, particularly in medically underserved areas. My approach is rooted in the belief that primary prevention is key to improving overall health outcomes and quality of life for my patients.

I measure the success of my care through patient satisfaction and the smiles I see on their faces. To achieve this, I prioritize clear communication and active listening, ensuring that I fully understand and address each patient's concerns. I believe in involving patients and their families (with consent) in every step of the shared decision-making process, fostering a collaborative approach to healthcare.
