Sees all ages
Physician Assistant, an advanced practice degree for primary care providers who undergo extensive practical training and board certification, and are licensed to practice medicine including the full range of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
I enjoy partnering with patients about the health issues and goals important to them, and empowering them to make the right health decisions for themselves. For every interaction, my goal is to get to know each person and make them feel comfortable meeting with their provider. I try to understand their motivations and challenges. I love to provide care for people with different cultural backgrounds. Learning from each person and each encounter is just as important to me as the health information I share with them.
How I stay healthy and happy
Spending time with family and friends, trying new foods/restaurants, travel whenever I can, bopping around to museums and monuments in DC
