Brief Intro

Welcome to My Home Page! I began practicing medicine in 2003 and joined Kaiser Permanente in 2007. My choice of career gives me the opportunity to combine my passion for service with my love of science and humanities. Medicine remains the perfect marriage of all my professional interests. I chose to work at Kaiser Permanente because of the focus the organization has on prevention and community. I particularly appreciate the emphasis on quality patient care. Working at Kaiser Permanente enables me to pay full attention to the needs of patients by approaching medicine from a professional instead of a business perspective. It is an honor and a privilege to take care of patients. My philosophy of care is to be present and supportive of every patient. I know that having an operation can be a very stressful, vulnerable time in a person's life. My aim is to reduce the worry felt by patients by understanding their feelings and supporting them through their operations. I have a particular clinical interest in health education and disaster preparedness. I also have training in public health, including international health and epidemiology. I am a former Peace Corps volunteer where I served a community in Guinea, West Africa.
