About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy of care revolves around understanding each patient's unique needs, preferences and concerns. By actively listening and involving you in the decision-making process, I provide personalized and compassionate care that respects your autonomy and promotes your overall well-being.
Why I entered medicine
My aunt and uncle are esteemed physicians. Their selfless dedication to the well-being of our family and the broader community ignited a passion within me for serving others through medicine. Their unwavering commitment to healing and the positive impact they had on so many lives inspired me to follow in their footsteps.
Community involvement
During my residency, I volunteered at a free health clinic and witnessed the immense value of providing medical care to the underprivileged and underserved communities. I am now seeking similar opportunities because I believe that as a physician, it is not only my duty but also my passion to extend health care services to those who need it most.
Personal interests
I enjoy playing badminton and pickleball, camping with my family, barbecuing, and DIY projects at home.
