History
My father was an anaesthesiologist, so my interest in medicine was sparked at an early age. In medical school, I realized that I really preferred to get to know patients well, following them for the long-term through their various chapters of life. Family medicine provides the opportunity to build great relationships with my patients and with their whole families, and it's my favorite part of the job. Today, it's rewarding to run my own practice, because I have been able to personally set everything up to make sure my patients feel relaxed and comfortable. Every day, my staff and I work hard to welcome everyone as soon as they call and when they come in. We want them to be satisfied when they leave and we want them to come back often. I have good rapport with my patients; they know that I genuinely care about them and about their well-being, and they're comfortable confiding in me. I see patients from age five and up.
