About me
I am originally from Brooklyn, N.Y., born to immigrant parents. My desire to become a doctor started at a very young age and has transcended over the years into a passion. All of my studies were completed in N.Y., where I practiced in underserved communities for several years. A change of pace brought my family to Atlanta, where I have been practicing since 2006. I joined Kaiser Permanente in 2010, and I have fused my previous experiences with the philosophy of a growing and dynamic organization.
About my practice
My cultural background, as well as the diversity in my surroundings, has shaped me into the type of physician that I have become. I aim to engage our members in their care and educate them on their current conditions so that they can be better equipped to improve their health. I see medical care as a partnership between physician and patient, where the patient serves a very active role. I chose to become a family physician because it afforded me the opportunity to provide thorough care to the patients and the families that I have come to know over the years.
How I thrive
True balance in life requires a balance of mind, body and spirit (or work, family and play). I thrive by spending as much time with my husband and children as I possibly can. I am the baseball and softball mom who is often traveling to different cities and states. Therefore, I am always surrounded by children who keep my heart uplifted. I aim towards spiritual balance as I believe that we are all "a work in progress" (as long as we are working towards that goal). I like writing and reading, and I especially enjoy entertaining and having a good time with good people.

Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
