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.
