CLINICAL BACKGROUND AND MY APPROACH TO CARE
I am a board-certified Internal Medicine Physician and Assistant Professor at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Raised in Orlando, Florida, I earned my bachelor’s in molecular and microbiology from the University of Central Florida and my MD from St. George’s University. Completing my Internal Medicine residency at SUNY Upstate is what led me to pursue primary care. I find joy and fulfillment in building patient relationships, addressing health needs, managing chronic conditions, and enhancing overall quality of life.
