I strive to view every person holistically, acknowledging the intricate interplay of mind and body, emotion and ailment, environment and gene. I am perpetually curious, yearning to discover, to delve beneath the surface, to truly understand and address the root causes of distress.
My passion for neurology is not only confined to the scientific rigor it demands, but it also lies in the unique personal narratives that each neuron carries. I listen with empathy, eager to understand each patient in their entirety, their experiences, fears, hopes and dreams.
In the face of adversity, I commit to being a pillar of strength, of reassurance. My mission is to illuminate the path to recovery, ensuring that each patient feels seen, heard and valued.
