Q

What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?

What I enjoy most about practicing medicine is the opportunity to help others in a meaningful way. Many healthcare providers see large numbers of patients, which can limit the time available for thorough education and personalized care. I find it especially rewarding to work in in‑home assessment programs, where I have the time and space to educate patients, advocate for their needs, and support improved health outcomes through a more individualized approach.
