Radiology

I like all aspects of Radiology. It is challenging and is crucial in making accurate diagnosis so that the corresponding treatment can be delivered by the clinicians. I interpret X-Ray, CAT scan, ultrasound, fluroscopy, and MRI. My main professional interests lie in MRI because I think this is a superb diagnostic technique which make use of the magnetic field instead of radiation and therefore do no harm to the patients. Body MRI is my specialty.

My Career at Kaiser Permanente

I joined the Kaiser Permanente Medical Group in 2001. I enjoy the autonomy to practice medicine/ radiology with KP and am always able to perform only the appropiate tests to my patients. The KP health network also has the largest resources in the nation. At Kaiser, great effort has been spent to ensure physicians have a sound physical and mental wellness so our …patients will be better hands.

Outside Interests

I enjoy golfing and hiking when I am not at work.
