Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I am deeply committed to providing the best care with compassion and precision. My skills in surgery have given me the ability to think critically when necessary and make sound medical decisions. I strive not only to address immediate medical concerns but also to educate and empower patients to take charge of their own health. I believe in treating every patient with the same level of respect and dedication that I would want for my own family members.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
The most important thing patients should expect is my ability to communicate their medical needs, diagnoses, and treatment plans in a way they understand. I expect patients to articulate as best they can how they feel and what their personal preferences are so that I can provide individualized care for them.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you are not caring for patients?
I spend most of my free time in the gym training, learning more about the function of nutrition as it correlates to our health, and educating myself on new research in the field of surgery.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
I chose surgery specifically because I was always curious about how our bodies function and how to repair them when they are damaged. I have always been fascinated with anatomy, and having the honor of operating on patients and curing or improving their illnesses is the greatest reward.
