Overview

Philosophy of care | I believe educating you about your medical diagnoses and conditions is an essential component of helping you heal. My goal is to provide you with excellent evidence-based compassionate care and treat you as if you are part of my own family. | Why I entered medicine | Deciding to pursue a medical career was a journey of discovery as I initially tried to stay away from the field. I was a school teacher for three years before I embarked into medicine. Ultimately, I learned that medicine combined the intriguing world of scientific discovery and the joy of teaching. It has allowed me to be a lifetime learner! | Community involvement | I am actively involved in the Society of Gynecologic Oncology and want to continue raising awareness of gynecologic cancers locally, regionally and nationally. I have been involved in raising money for the Women's Cancer Foundation and the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition by participating in their annual walks. I also support my local church and community. | Personal interests | I enjoy cooking, traveling, scuba diving, snowboarding and most of all, spending time with my family.

Philosophy of care | Personalized care starts during my first meeting with a patient and family. That's when I get to know the patient as completely as possible. I want to know about the patient's concerns, values and support system so I can provide care that is specific to him or her. | Also, I am a member of the skin and soft tissue cancer multidisciplinary consultation team. Together we review your diagnostic information and give you a written opinion reflecting the scope of your condition and recommendations for your best course of care. | Why I entered medicine | When I was young, I didn't like seeing doctors. It created a lot of anxiety for me. Now that I'm older, I can relate to the way people feel, especially when they're coping with the emotions caused by a serious condition like cancer. My grandmother died of uterine cancer in the 1960s. During her battle, I felt helpless. That is what attracted me to cancer research. Now I see the amazing progress we are making through cancer research. | Community involvement | I served on the state board of the American Cancer Society. Today, I take more of a grassroots approach to offer my support. I participate in events, such as 5K runs, that benefit charities.
