About me
Thanks for looking at my Web page. I hope this gives you a glimpse of who I am. I look forward to meeting you.
Biography
I was born and raised in Southern California. After finishing my undergraduate studies, I moved to New York City to pursue a master’s degree in public administration. While completing my degree, it became clear to me that medicine was my true path, as the aspect of health care I enjoyed most involved direct patient care and contact. I moved to Arizona and completed medical school at Midwestern University, and then I did my residency training at the Mayo Clinic. When the opportunity arose to become a physician at Kaiser Permanente, I was excited to return to my home state.
About my practice
Having been trained at the Mayo Clinic, I strongly believe in the motto that “the patient’s best interest is the only interest to consider,” and I incorporate that into my practice. I feel privileged to be your physician and want to do my best to ensure that you receive high-quality care. I am also a strong advocate for preventive care and health screenings. I feel that we are fortunate to live in a time when effective screenings are available for cervical, breast, and colon cancer.
How I thrive
I believe in creating balance in my life. I love spending time with my family and traveling.
