As a child, I was diagnosed with a chronic disease and spent a lot of time in the hospital and clinic. Witnessing the passionate care and nurturing bedside manner of my doctors inspired me to pursue a career in medicine. In medical school, I fell in love with Ob/Gyn because of its variety. Not only do I get to perform deliveries and surgeries, I also have the opportunity to provide primary care for women and follow them throughout the many stages of their life. My goal is to make sure that each of my patients feels heard. I believe patient education and shared decision-making are incredibly important to arrive at a treatment plan tailored to each one’s specific needs and desires, while following guidelines and evidence-based medicine.
