Becoming a physician is a lifelong dream that fulfills my personal and career goals. I feel privileged to have found a career that allows me to learn more about the human body while helping people learn how to take better care of their health. My mission is to promote maximal functional capacity, improve emotional wellbeing and optimize quality of life for my patients without significant medication side effects. By practicing pain medicine, I have a unique opportunity to see life through a different pair of glasses by helping our patients live better and easing their pain.” Many patients need long-term support and care. They need the benefits of my background in Internal Medicine, board certification in anesthesiology and pain management and my fellowship training in pain management.
