Kamran Sahrakar

Overview

The reasons for becoming a medical provider are different from the reasons I continue to be one. When I made neurosurgery my career, my intent was to help individuals to health with neurosurgery, and this was and continues to be an extremely rewarding part of my work. More recently I have additional interest in informing and educating colleagues and patients to prevent disease and creating systems and processes that promote health in populations.  In my free time I enjoy running, wine, gardening, hiking, pets, cooking and computer programming. I am also a dog shelter volunteer.All living things exist in a delicately balanced state. Disease is the manifestation of an imbalance. Prevention of disease (learning how to prevent imbalance) is the biggest contribution the provider can make to the well-being of the patient. For the sick, as a provider, I feel my job is to identify the cause of an imbalance and help the patient regain health. Most healing comes from the patient- I can help guide the body's natural healing abilities, but I cannot create health.
