“I knew I wanted to become a doctor when I was seven years old.  My grandfather was a general practitioner and would allow me to join him on weekends when he made hospital rounds.  His innate ability to listen to, comfort, and care for patients was inspiring, and I knew that I would help people in this same way one day.  Empathy, communication and collaboration are the cornerstones of my patient care philosophy. I am eager to listen to my patients’ concerns, help them fully understand their diagnoses, and guide them through available treatment options, so they can make informed decisions about their care.  Adults or pediatrics, I enjoy working with patients of all ages and I treat all cases as special and unique. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing my patients’ lives transformed for the better.”
