About
Personal Statement
I chose to become a primary care physician because I love to develop relationships with my patients to provide individualized care, where I would not only treat a medical problem but also integrate their personal, social, and professional lives to optimize the care.
Medicine is changing at a rapid pace and I strive to keep myself up-to-date and find ways to improve one step at a time.
