Philosophy of Medicine
"I have always been fascinated by human anatomy and physiology. Anesthesia offers a unique challenge of monitoring and caring for patient's physiology before, during, and after anesthesia. I love taking care of all age groups of patients and ensuring they have the best anesthetic experience possible."
