Overview
Philosophy of care | I want to be able to deliver the best possible care to you in the most effective way. I emphasize preventive medicine – especially dietary and lifestyle changes – as the initial step for treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease and other related complications. | Why I entered medicine | I chose to become a physician because I can help people and help alleviate their pain and suffering as much as possible. | Community involvement | I volunteered extensively during my undergraduate trainings in hospitals and clinics in California. Here in the Lehigh Valley, I serve as member of Bahá’í faith spiritual assemblies in Bethlehem and Bethlehem Township. In the last 23 years, I have volunteered as a teacher, educator and lecturer in the Lehigh Valley community. Throughout my career, I have mentored students across many levels, from high school and pre-med students to students in medical school and medical residents. | Personal interests | I enjoy walking, jogging, spending time with family and friends, and participating in community and volunteer activities.

Philosophy of care | I want to not only provide high quality care for you, but also develop a long-lasting relationship with you and your family. I always treat you as a human being with an ailment, not a patient number, room number or disease process. I always approach the management of my patients with the thought as to what I would want if this was my mother or father, or wife, or children. | Why I entered medicine | During my high school years, my sister fell ill with spinal cord cancer and spent the better part of 2.5 years hospitalized at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. We, being a small family, spent day and night in the hospital with her. It was during this time that I truly became enthralled with the field of medicine. Since I would sleep nights and spent my weekends there, the residents became my friends and began taking me on my rounds and teaching me. This provided the first exposure to practice of medicine. I then went on to medical school and obtained a residency at Columbia University. It was there that I met a wonderful teacher and mentor, Dr. Glenda Garvey, who in turn referred me to Dr. Mark Josephson to learn the field of electrophysiology. I could not have asked for a better education and owe my knowledge of electrophysiology to Dr. Josephson. | Community involvement | I have participated in several medical mission trips to South Africa, Haiti and Nicaragua. | Personal interests | I enjoy music and soccer.
