Description

I was drawn to family medicine because it lets me to focus on my patients’ physical concerns as well as on outside factors that affect their physical health. I always greet my patients with a smile. I am an active listener. I focus on getting to know my patients, including their daily life routine, family ties, friendships and hobbies so that I can better understand them in a holistic way. Together we develop a treatment plan that best suits their specific needs. I enjoy being able to make changes in external sources that negatively affect patient health. This includes things like addressing a patient’s social stressors, or helping with economic concerns that limit a patient’s access to health care. I feel immense joy when I’m able to make changes that make a positive impact in other’s lives.
