Professional interests:

- Pediatrics
I am a board-certified family medicine physician and have been in medical practice since 2012. A Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) is an international undergraduate medical degree. It is equal to a Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degree.
My professional interests include acute, chronic and preventive care, geriatric medicine, women's health and pediatrics.
I became a physician because: I was inspired by a family physician I knew growing up. He also helped save my mothers life by diagnosing her heart attack at the right time so she could get the maximum benefit.
Best part of my work: It has always been my biggest desire to help other people and being a physician provides me with this opportunity everyday. I feel accomplished when my patients feel better or meet their goals with my help.
What I tell friends and family: Prevention is always better than treatment. Understanding your health issues helps you better control them.
The best thing I have done for my health is: eating healthy, natural foods and avoiding processed foods.
Practice philosophy: The patient's needs come first.
