From the Doctor:
The main reason why I love practicing medicine is the joy I get from helping people. I get great satisfaction from helping patients heal and being there during their most difficult times.
I enjoy having the opportunity to educate my patients and to listen to their concerns. I incorporate each individual's perspective on the patient care process.
When I'm not with my patients, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and keeping up with my medical journals.
