" My genuine interest in Family Medicine began during my
clinical rotations in medical school. I was fortunate to be trained
by very knowledgeable and compassionate Family Physicians. I
really admired how they treat their patients beyond the scope of
their ailments. These doctors truly related to their patients.
Considering my own fundamental values and what I find most
rewarding, I knew I had to become a Family Physician."
