About
Second to my family, my relationship with my patients brings me the greatest joy. I believe that a strong patient-physician relationship is the key to high value care. I’m a strong proponent of using a rigorous process improvement method to ensure healthcare delivery is optimized. I enjoy music and food culture and love to travel with my family.
