Care philosophy: I look at each patient as the whole human they are. I value a complimentary, holistic approach with the mindset that overall health is multifactorial. Oftentimes, if we can hone in optimizing a few areas of health, a greater overall benefit is achieved. Why I became a medical provider: Practicing medicine combines multiple passions of mine. I have always been a natural caregiver and this role affords me that opportunity. I also I enjoy studying the sciences and consider myself ever-learning. I also value the dynamic of the healthcare team, and enjoy being part of the team environment.
