Meet Your Provider

What led you to become a doctor?
As a five year old, I thought doctors got to do really cool things and help people. I found the human body and how it works fascinating and I found I thrived by building bonds with patients. It was only natural that I chose a specialty, such as OBGYN, where the doctor-patient relationship can grow strong, have longevity throughout a lifetime and also allow me to work both cerebrally and surgically.

What about your line of work do you find most rewarding and why?
That often I am entrusted with providing care for some of the most intimate and vulnerable moments in life.

What’s your proudest moment as a doctor?
I feel most proud when even the most difficult cases have good outcomes.

What can a patient expect when they have you as a doctor?
To treat their concerns as important and valid in a respectful and caring manner along with providing them with education, support and an individualized treatment plan.

What are your top priorities with every patient you see?
I strive to ensure my patients' concerns are met with understanding and empathy and they can expect a stellar, collaborative care plan.
