What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?
What I enjoy most about practicing medicine is the ability to make a real difference in the lives of others every day. I take pride in being a dependable presence for the residents, knowing they rely on me to walk into the room and provide support, guidance, and care. My ultimate goal is to teach and inspire others to care from the heart—not because they have to, but because they genuinely want to—and to ensure that residents receive the best possible care. For me, it’s not about titles, positions, or recognition; it’s about fostering true quality, hands-on compassion, and education that empowers others to do the same.
