Overview
Philosophy of care | Children and their families suffer when the are involved in chronic illnesses. I feel that besides the use of medications, their problems need to be addressed as a whole and with empathy. The trust and availability of the physician in times of need alleviates the anxiety of the children and their parents. | Why I entered medicine | I grew up in an environment where medicine was regarded as a very noble profession. My parents certainly created an environment early in my life that strengthened my interest in medicine. | Personal interests | I am fond of traveling.
