My grandfather was a physician; I remember spending time with him when I was a kid and being in awe of his intelligence, calm demeanor and selflessness. \n My approach to healthcare is rooted in the principle of meeting patients wherever they are on their journey. We often encounter patients and their families during their most vulnerable moments. Because of that, I strive to help them make incremental improvements in their health. \n I am most grateful to be surrounded by an incredible team. I firmly believe that healthcare is not a solo endeavor; it requires a team-based approach. Collaboration among healthcare professionals, along with the active involvement of the patient, is essential in achieving the best outcomes. \n I enjoy being involved in leading-edge research and frequently serve as principal investigator on as many as four clinical trials at one time. \n Outside medicine, I cherish every moment I spend with my wife and children. Our family is also blessed with two wonderful dogs and a cat, and they add immeasurable joy and warmth to our home. In our free time, we love to go to the beach and enjoy the ocean, embracing its beauty and the tranquility it offers. My wife and I are also passionate about showing our daughters the world, exposing them to diverse experiences and cultures to broaden their horizons.
