Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. Actively working to improve patient care and showing compassion when patients need it the most is my mission. 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? The role of a primary care provider is to focus on preventative treatment, diagnose and treat illnesses and to help patients maintain their physical and mental health.
