Specialties & Main Areas of Interest
Care Philosophy
Over the last few years, unfortunately, I have seen severe life-threatening illness in my immediate family. I have seen the patient and family members suffering very closely. My empathy for the patients has therefore increased exponentially. In nearly every patient’s face, I now see my sick immediate family member’s face and in the patient’s caregiver’s faces, I see the rest of my family’s faces. This has changed me as a physician and as a human being. My goal now is to try my best not only to diagnose and treat the disease well but also to take care of the human being who has the disease.
