Choosing to become a physician was my way of working toward the betterment of others. I strive every day to treat my patients how I would like to be cared for. I believe that we all need to contribute to society in a positive and meaningful way. I recognize that each patient is different and may have different needs and preferences. Customizing the care plan for each individual is a core principle of my practice of medicine. I enjoy traveling with my family to continue to learn about different cultures and societies in my spare time. I also love soccer and if I have any opportunity to join the two together, it is pure joy.
