About

Philosophy of care

I believe in first protecting my patients from any harm and providing them with the best care possible, using the most up-to-date, evidence-based medicine. I strive to care for my patients as human beings and not as disease processes. I try my best to integrate their social and cultural background to their care to achieve the best possible outcomes. Also, I always keep my patients informed and involved in the decision-making process regarding their care.

Why I entered medicine

I chose medicine because it gives me the opportunity to earn my living by helping people daily. I am also fascinated with the wealth of medical knowledge and the excitement of practicing the art of medicine. I enjoy caring for people, and I am always humbled by the positive impact that my work can potentially have on their lives and well being.

Personal interests

I enjoy volunteering, watching and playing sports, exercising, and spending time with family and friends.
