Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I am a guide, a helper, and a listener. My passion is treating my patients as a whole, not just managing a medical condition or ailment. I like to learn something new everyday and provide the best alternative of care for my patients. In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? A primary care physician is a puzzle completer. They are the ones that should be the first stop for the patient, the one that knows them better and the one that they trust more. PCPs are like the director of the orchestra. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? In my spare time I like to sing, listen to music, and participate in sport events with my children.
