Summary

I specialize in general adult psychiatry; psychological trauma; organizational and occupational psychiatry. To be a physician is to be present with a person who suffers, whether physical or psychological, and needs help. We see people when they are in pain, exposed and vulnerable. My vocation is to help relieve that suffering to the best of my abilities through my professional knowledge and experience, while treating people with dignity and respect.

I enjoy traveling and exploring new countries. I also enjoy golf (limited to trying NOT to be a terrible golfer), photography, cooking and making my community a better place.
