About me
Welcome to my Web page. I'm happy to have this chance to introduce myself to you and tell you about my work as an emergency medicine physician at Kaiser Permanente in Downey. I trained at the University of Miami for my medical degree and my master of public health degree and completed my emergency medicine residency in Corpus Christi, Texas. I have also completed an emergency ultrasound fellowship at UC Irvine. As a Kaiser Permanente emergency clinician, I hope to offer you high-quality healthcare.
Biography
I was born and raised in Southern California. Having spent over 7 years for medical training out-of-state, I am ecstatic to have moved back to my home state close to family and friends. I chose to practice emergency medicine due to the focused care that I am able to provide. I feel fortunate to care for members in their time of significant need. I appreciate the diversity of members that I see and the conditions that I encounter. My particular interest lies in the use of emergency ultrasound to help strengthen my diagnostic role.
About my practice
My practice of emergency medicine revolves around education and reassurance that you are getting comprehensive care while in the Emergency Department. My goal by the end of your visit is that you have all questions answered and that I am able, to the best of my ability, to diagnose and treat the ailment that brought you to the Emergency Department.
How I thrive
I love the outdoors. Hiking with my wife is one of my favorite hobbies. One of my favorite national parks to explore is Yosemite. I love the scenery of waterfalls, granite mountains, trees, and wildlife. I love fishing, playing basketball, and working out. I enjoy trying new restaurants and traveling as well.
