What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
The most up-to-date, guideline-directed care is delivered in a down-to-earth and patient-centered manner.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you’re not caring for patients?
I enjoy cooking and spending time at home with my multiple dogs and cats.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
As a hospitalist, I take care of patients who are sick enough to be admitted to the hospital. I find it very rewarding to see the care I provide make a real difference and see my patients get better in front of my eyes. The ultimate goal is always to get patients healthy and back home to their normal lives.
