Overview
My philosophy of care is to listen to the patient, get a good clinical history and then perform a comprehensive exam. I like to involve my patient in the decision making and explain all the treatment options and the follow-up plan. I think of each neurological disease as a puzzle. I carefully collect all the pieces together to form the correct picture, so I can prescribe the right treatment. I am interested in improving a patient's quality of life by providing the best medical care.|My special clinical interests include epilepsy and clinical neurophysiology, especially EEG.|Why I Love My Work|I enjoy the human part of this job, seeing a smile on my patient's face when he/she improves and listening to the patients and their caregivers.|I was motivated to go into medicine since it was my life dream to become a doctor and help patients recover. I have seen my closest family suffer from strokes and kidney injuries. Therefore, I decided to become a doctor and help patients minimize their suffering. I always wanted to find a cure for every single disease.|Getting to Know Me|Outside of work, I enjoy sewing, playing guitar, hanging out, traveling and cooking.
