Personal Statement

I went into Family Medicine following in the footsteps of my grandmother, who served as a general practitioner for the National Health Service in England for forty years. I love primary care medicine because it allows time for the patient and physician to develop a strong therapeutic bond. I have seen how this improves outcomes through a command of the patient’s longitudinal history that only continuity of care can provide. During my free time I enjoy traveling, spending time with my husband and two children, swimming, hiking and reading.
