WHAT MAKES YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT ENDOCRINOLOGY?

I am passionate about Endocrinology because of its intellectual depth, which mirrors my inquisitive and detail-oriented nature. I find fulfillment in managing complex conditions, providing education and counseling, and holistically supporting my patients through a disease process. I feel privileged to build long-term relationships with my patients and view these alliances as partnerships. We have a common goal that cannot be accomplished without collaboration.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO OPEN YOUR OWN PRACTICE?

My vision for Northshore Endocrinology and Diabetes is to provide a warm, comfortable, and supportive environment for personalized, evidence-based, quality care. We opted for the direct care model, where insurance is not accepted. This means that patients are prioritized over administrative tasks, allowing for timely appointments, ample face-to-face interactions, and collaborative medical decision making. I believe that medical care is an alliance between a patient and physician; third parties should not intrude on this relationship.
