About

Bio

I am currently a physician for one of the largest Urgent Care systems in the area. I found out that many of the patients I saw every day could be accurately diagnosed and treated just by talking to them and taking their history. Online consult and telemedicine are new ways that we can make doctors more available to patients in need by taking advantage of new technology. That is why I want to join this new way of practicing medicine and hopefully I can use my experience to make a difference.

Specialties
Doctors may have more than one area of specialty interest. Board certification in a specialty area means the doctor has completed formal training and has practice experience in that specialty, and has passed the certification examination from the corresponding accredited medical specialty board.
