Personal Statement
The field of pediatrics has opened many possibilities for advancement over the many years of its existence. Although our population of patients pose a challenge to many providers, I have often welcomed this challenge. Children are resilient and it brings me joy to be a part of their healthcare.
Biography
I obtained my medical degree from the Royal Pontifical University of Santo Tomas in the Philippines - one of the most prestigious institutions locally. I completed my pediatric residency training at SBH Health System in the Bronx and was retained as a chief resident and attending physician in the Pediatric Emergency Room. My clinical interests involve urgent and emergent care of sick children and adolescents. I also have interests in medical education, quality improvement and community outreach.
