About
Philosophy of care
My primary focus is providing comprehensive, compassionate, patient-centered care. Navigating complicated medical conditions and the health care system can be challenging for both patients and their families. I will partner with you to educate, guide and empower you through the decision-making process to help find a treatment plan that best suits your unique needs.
Why I entered medicine
My work and volunteer experiences in various health care settings highlighted for me the privilege of taking care of patients. I am passionate about using my skills to serve my community and promote overall health and well-being.
Community involvement
From raising awareness about the importance of mental health, to advocating for the geriatric population and serving as a hospice volunteer, community involvement has always been important to me. I look forward to serving the greater Lehigh Valley.
Personal interests
I enjoy time with friends and family, playing tennis, traveling and trying new cuisines.
