I
chose a career in medicine to help fulfill two life passions – to serve
humanity and study the physiological processes of the body. As a sports
medicine physician, my experiences as a competitive and recreational athlete
allow me to empathize with patients’ needs and concerns. I am passionate about
treating injuries and also educating patients on injury prevention and the
importance of healthy lifestyles. I am always mindful that I am treating
a human being, and not exclusively an injury or disease process.

both adults and children.
