My approach to family medicine is centered around each family that I care for. Everyone is different, and I enjoy tailoring my approach to the individual needs of each person. My favorite part of being a family physician is growing alongside a family and creating long lasting bonds.
I will encourage you to ask questions and look into alternative therapies that may help you, apart from traditional medicine. During our appointments, I aim to empower you to make decisions regarding your health and hope to give you a deeper understanding of how to work towards a healthier life.
I grew up in Maryland, about 30 minutes outside of Washington, D.C. I enjoyed going to college in Baltimore and was lucky enough to pursue graduate studies in the Caribbean. I've always enjoyed traveling and hope to someday make it to every continent! I am a classically trained Indian dancer and still try to find time to dance, even with my busy schedule. I also enjoy cooking, baking, playing sports and spending time with my family.
