What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I enjoy building a rapport with my patients so they can feel confident in taking care of their health. I like to provide them with the resources and encouragement they need to take control of their healthcare goals. I am passionate about using my skills to provide individualized plans to help them achieve holistic and preventative care. 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? I believe the primary care provider not only helps facilitate health care goals of patients but also helps them achieve their mental and spiritual goals.The primary care provider uses his/her role to become to collaborate with their patient to address individual health needs.
