Overview
Philosophy of care | My philosophy is rooted in empathy and compassion. You are a unique individual with your own story, and my role is to listen deeply and understand your needs, both medical and emotional. I strive to create an environment where you feel safe and valued, empowering you to participate in your care decisions and express any concerns without fear of judgment. I still remember being nervous when first visiting the OB-GYN as a teenager, and that experience has shaped my approach to patient care. | Why I entered medicine | I was always most interested in science classes, leading me to a career in medicine. My passion for OB-GYN is rooted in my commitment to improving women's health and advocating for their well-being at every stage of life. | Personal interests | I spend most of my free time with my husband and family – family means everything to me. I also enjoy gardening, traveling to new places and staying active on my Peloton. Such activities help me unwind and keep life balanced.
