"I have been a practicing physician for more than 15 years, with experience in both hospital medicine and primary care. My idol and mentor is my uncle, who practiced in rural Hungary for over three decades. He was loved and respected by his community as he built personal relationships and friendships with every family he treated over many years. Spending a lot of summers with him while I grew up made me realize that medicine was the profession I needed to choose. My philosophy of ""listen to what your patient is telling you"" has been proven very effective in getting to the diagnosis fast and efficiently. I enjoy helping people and getting to know the whole person, as people are different and treatment needs to be individualized.
