"My motto is 'I treat patients the way I would want somebody to take care of a beloved family member.' My personal style includes getting to know my patients a bit over time, helping them through the illnesses that may come their way, or seeing them for their annual exam year after year. Being a patient advocate is also an aspect of caring for patients that I enjoy. Often patients or their families need help navigating through the maze of healthcare, and I like to be able to lend that helping hand as well. I enjoy seeing women of all ages for their female health needs, including annual exams, STD testing and treatment, contraception, and health maintenance. Menopausal women have unique needs and I enjoy working with them, prescribing bio-identical hormones if indicated, to maximize their quality of life. I love my profession and I am happy to be part of the team at San Diego Sports Medicine & Family Health Center."
