My approach to care

My approach to care is to provide information and medical care to children and their families, to empower them to pursue safe, happy, and healthy lives.

Why I went into healthcare

I became a physician because I want everyone to have access to excellent medical care for their loved ones, and want to help elevate care quality through system level interventions.

I love spending time with my wife and two young kids. Something you might not know about me is that I enjoy learning and applying various home improvement skills, like gardening and fixing things around the home.
