What is your practice philosophy? Provide quality care and health equity for everyone and empower patients to achieve their best health. Genuinely listen and communicate with kindness.
If I wasn’t a provider, I would be a: Chef, because I love cooking and it is one of those things that just comes naturally for me, and I love trying out new recipes.
Something I have learned from my patients is: That it is important to listen and have cultural awareness because it helps in developing a sincere and a genuine inclusive approach to people of other cultures.
One of the challenges of this career that I enjoy is (and why): Challenges come with learning opportunities. I constantly learn new things and enjoy taking the time to educate patients and empower them to achieve their best health.
My personal health goal is: Get regular physical activity and practice portion control.
What is the best thing you’ve done for your health or the best health advice you’ve received? Have healthy breakfast as it keeps you energetic and fueled for optimal mental and physical performance, and drink plenty of water as it helps in keeping well hydrated and maintain healthy body.
What are you most proud of? My family. I am what I am today because of their unconditional support and values I have inherited from my family.
