About

Philosophy of care

My philosophy of care is ensuring you receive high-quality digestive care in a welcoming, friendly and comfortable environment. I take pride in getting to know all my patients and understanding your individual needs and concerns.

Why I entered medicine

Being a physician allows me to interact with people and provide them guidance for improved health. An additional benefit is seeing someone get better and live a fuller, more enjoyable life.

Community involvement

I am a long-term supporter of Women for Women International. They provide a broad array of vital support and education for women in eight countries around the world that have felt the devastating effects of conflict.

Personal interests

I enjoy spending free time with my family, contributing to the welfare of the community and reading.
