      What inspires me to practice medicine is the desire to help people increase their quality of life. I want to see people become empowered to take control of their health and create a trusting provider-patient relationship. I am passionate about increasing health literacy among the community, mental health and management of chronic diseases.

      Health care is a universal right. Everyone deserves access to respectful and individualized care. I like being part of Alivio’s mission of filling the gap in the U.S. healthcare system. In daily practice, I enjoy getting to know each patient as individuals, tailoring the health plan to their needs. Over the years, it is the relationship with patients that gives me energy and hope to continue my work.
