About Me
I am a board-certified internal medicine physician at Memorial Primary Care. I provide comprehensive preventive care and treatment for a range of health concerns, such as high blood pressure, cholesterol imbalances, diabetes and other conditions.
I believe healing isn’t only about medicine - it’s about human connection. I’ve always been moved by the moments when someone responds to vulnerability and uncertainty with compassion and clarity. As a physician, I know how important it is to take the time to listen, explain and simply be present.
That’s why I offer a personalized, evidence-based approach to care that’s built on shared decision-making and open communication. My goal is to create an environment where my patients feel heard, respected and empowered to take an active role in their well-being.
