About me

Hello, and welcome to my Web page! I am happy to tell you a little about myself and am honored to be involved in your family’s care.

Biography

My dad was in the United States Navy for over 25 years. I was born in San Diego and have lived throughout the United States and Asia. As a result, I have a deep respect and appreciation for all cultures and life experiences. Every one of my members has a family and a community that depends on them. I am honored to practice medicine and be given the opportunity to educate and empower individuals to prevent, treat, and cope with chronic disease. I pursued additional training in geriatrics because older adults have so much wisdom and yet medical, psychosocial, and cognitive issues can complicate their care. As an assistant clinical professor at Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine, I’m passionate about medical and graduate medical education. I am involved with the geriatric and palliative medicine fellowships at Kaiser Permanente and participate in health equity initiatives through our medical group, including Clinician Patient Communication and LGBT Health.

About my practice

I am triple board certified in internal medicine, geriatric medicine, and hospice and palliative medicine. I am in the Department of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine and Continuing Care, so I take care of our members in a variety of settings including clinics, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities and through other care transitions. I also care for members who are suffering from life-limiting diseases in the hospital, clinic and at home. I use my expertise in contributing to medical and paraprofessional education, and assist in helping in coordinating teams and systems. Some of my goals for members are preserving their function and contributing to healthy aging. I also focus on quality of life issues and assist families and members during serious illness and end of life. My practice gives me a holistic, whole-person view of health care.

How I thrive

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.” This quote by Marcel Proust is one of my favorites. Nurturing these relationships is a priority. I make sure to balance work with personal growth. I enjoy doing a core strength and conditioning program, Zumba dancing, photography, and going to live performances (musicals, plays), travelling, and spending time with my husband, friends, and family. Los Angeles is a great city to live in and explore.
