Bio
I believe in patient-centered care. I am an internal medicine doctor with a subspecialty in endocrinology. My areas of interest include general internal medicine with special interest in diabetes, PCOS, and thyroid issues. I transitioned into medicine through social policy, and I like to practice a patient-centered approach. I like to know what my patient's life looks like and focus on interventions that will work best for patients. I enjoy teaching students, patients, and I love to learn.
