Q

What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?

What I enjoy most about practicing medicine is bringing back true patient-centered care—something I believe many hospitals have moved away from. I value taking the time to truly listen and connect with my patients, ensuring they feel heard and cared for. I also make it a priority to offer same-day or next-business-day appointments for acute needs, allowing my patients to receive timely, compassionate care when they need it most.
