Overview
Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to treat every patient with the same compassion, dedication and respect I would offer to a close friend or family member. I strive to provide the highest quality care possible, ensuring you and your child feel heard, valued and supported. | Why I entered medicine | I was drawn to medicine not only because of the challenge it presented, but also because I grew up surrounded by a deep sense of purpose in health care. My mother, a lactation specialist, and my father, a respiratory therapist and medical interpreter, both dedicated their lives to supporting others in moments of vulnerability. Their compassion and commitment to service inspired me from an early age, and I knew I wanted to follow a path that allowed me to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. | Community involvement | I am involved in community charities and engaged in pediatric advocacy efforts. | Personal interests | Fitness, traveling, food and finance keep me busy in my free time.
