Why I became an MD: I grew up in a medical family. My dad and sister are family practice physicians and I developed a love for medicine early in my life.
What I tell friends and family: Prevention is key. Make time to exercise and eat right.
How I spend my free time: I enjoy spending time with family, working out and working around the house.
