“My favorite part about being a physician is helping people, and that’s also why I went into rheumatology. I like building relationships with my patients. I like having a lifelong relationship with them while seeing the disease process get better. I take my time with each …patient to ensure we connect, and I listen to them. I truly desire to improve all of their symptoms.
I focus on wellness and preventive care such as diet, gut health, and overall health and wellness while also prescribing medications that we know work and are clinically trialed. With medication and lifestyle changes, I see a huge difference in patients from the initial consult through their whole lives.”
