About Me
What made you want to become a health care provider or what is your earliest memory of wanting to be one?
I remember wanting to be a doctor from very early childhood. I always wanted to work with people, and never wanted to stop learning.
What do you love most about your specialty? / Why did you choose your specialty?
It is a combination of a medical and surgical field. I was always interested in Women's health and love the complexity of my subspecialty.
How do you connect with your patients?
By listening and understanding their needs.
What are your interests outside of the office (hobbies, activities)?
I love reading and traveling.
What is your advice for your patients?
They have to make an informed decision and no one else can make it for them since patient's life is affected most by the decision made.
