About me
I was born and raised in Nairobi and Kenya, and came to the Pacific Northwest for college and graduate work. I have lived here for almost 30 years. My husband and I have two handsome boys aged 10 and 15. I come from a family of clinicians, and have always had an interest in the medical field. I am fluent in Swahili, Punjabi, and Hindi as well as English.
About my practice
I strive to explain my findings to each of my patients so that they can actively be a part of their own care. I believe people take better care of themselves when they fully understand the reason for their symptoms or concerns. I still continue to be amazed at the perfect composition and workings of the human body, and how well it all works together. This allows me to practice eye care as a part of the whole being. I joined Kaiser Permanente because of its emphasis on high-quality, comprehensive care and the collaboration between multiple specialties.
How I thrive
I enjoy Crossfit, running, skiing, and kayaking. My passions include growing orchids and traveling. I recently climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with my family. I enjoy the quietness of the morning, and start each day with exercise. This allows me to take care of my own health before taking care of the health of my patients. I also love to cook, and am always exploring new recipes for my family

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business, and 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. 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.
A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered, or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.
