“Prevention and wellness comes from within each of us. I focus on promoting healthy lifestyle changes, as well as detecting and treating health issues early, in order to preserve wellness.”

“Caring for patients as a physician is a lifelong learning process. Each encounter brings its own special challenges and joys. And I often find myself learning as much from listening to patients as I do reading a textbook or journal.”

“The patient-doctor relationship is a partnership, first and foremost. Listening to the patient’s concerns is the most important step to achieve that end.”

“I am a strong believer in pre-emptive medicine and not reactive medicine though the latter does have its value. Looking for risk factors before they become diseases is a very important part of my practice. Spending the time and effort in risk stratifying the patient goes a long way in disease prevention. I provide appropriate, compassionate, and timely medical care.”
