About me

My father was a primary care physician and I grew up watching his compassionate care towards his patients. This sparked my passion early on towards medicine. I continued on his path and completed medical school and residency in internal medicine with a subspecialization in endocrinology and metabolism. I also have a board certification through the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. I utilize lifestyle medicine in my practice often as I believe several chronic medical conditions could be alleviated by making small, healthy changes in our daily life.

 

About my practice

 

I love practicing endocrinology, which mainly involves the long-term care for diabetics and patients with different hormonal abnormalities including thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, adrenal gland and metabolic aspect of polycystic ovarian syndrome. I am honored to work with a dedicated team of staff who go above and beyond to meet the care needs of our patients. I look forward to partnering with you in your health care journey to achieve your best state of health and to live a fully functional life focusing on a whole health approach that includes physical, mental and social health. I thank you for choosing Kaiser Permanente and me to be a partner in your health care journey.

 

How I thrive

 

I thrive by spending time in nature. I like gardening, hiking, traveling and visiting national parks in my free time with my family and friends. I also enjoy yoga and meditation practices.

The information in this online directory is updated periodically. The availability of physicians, hospitals, providers, and services may change. Before receiving care at a facility, select that location in our directory and verify the accepted plan types under "About this facility" to make sure it is available in your plan. If no plan types are listed, the facility is available for all plan types.

Medicare Members: To request a hard copy of Kaiser Permanente’s provider directory, please call our Member Services department at 1-800-232-4404, seven days a week, 8 a.m to 8 p.m. Kaiser Permanente will mail a hard copy of the provider directory to you within three (3) business days of your request.

If you request it, your request for hard copies of the provider directory remains until you leave Kaiser Permanente or request that hard copies be discontinued.

Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select providers and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. 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.

Kaiser Permanente uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business.
