I was a college volunteer intern at an inner-city emergency room in Manhattan, New York when I first came to grips with the wide spectrum of disease in its mildest forms to the most severe, witnessing all the hardships that can come with it. I asked a question at the time that has been bothering me ever since: “How can we make more people healthier and prevent people from needing the emergency room in the first place?” Ultimately, I find a calling as a physician trying to work toward solving this dilemma every day. Within medicine, personal experiences with diabetes in my own family galvanizes a passion for endocrinology and a drive to help others alike with diabetes and metabolic disorders. Medicine does not always follow a “one-size-fit-all” approach. I value getting to know my patients holistically and trying to understand what makes them tick. Using the most up-to-date evidence available, I am committed to working together with patients to create a shared medical plan that aligns with their specific health goals in effort to help them become the best versions of themselves. I understand that it is not always easy living with a medical condition, and it is imperative that patients do not feel judged when discussing their health. Creating long-term relationships with patients and rejoicing in their efforts towards health maintenance and improvement over time is one of the most fulfilling aspects of being a physician for me, and it would be my honor to serve you along your health journey. When I am not at work, I enjoy running, playing basketball and tennis, cooking, trying different cuisines, traveling to different countries and spending time with family and friends.
