Occupation
ADOLESCENT/YOUNG ADULT MEDICINE
“Cura Personalis’ is a Latin phrase I was taught at Georgetown during my training. That translates as ‘Care for the entire person.’ My philosophy in caring for my patients is that in order to serve them best I need to see them as who they are as a person, their circumstances and their challenges as well as their medical diagnosis. I believe in partnering with parents, adolescents, and young adults I care for to include them as vital participants in medical decision making. Prioritizing quality care and patient centered communication, not time allotted for an appointment, is what I believe results in the best medical care.”
