Personal Statement

Cardiology became my focus once I realized the beauty and complexity of the heart. I enjoy putting the many pieces of symptoms, medications, anatomy and testing together to see the problem and help patients fix it so that they can lead a better life.

I believe in caring for the whole person and treating the individual, rather than the organ or lab result. My patients are not a number to me. My patients are humans with lives, families, hopes and dreams. My job is to help my patients reach their health goals.

Outside of medicine, my passions include yoga, natural living and getting out in nature as much as possible.

      As usual at UK clinics, my care was provided first by a nurse-practitioner and then by the physician. It's my long experience that the nurse-practitioner deals with the touchy-feely part of the patient's concerns, thus allowing the doctor to concentrate on the important part: ordering the tests, writing the prescriptions.
