Summary
- Note: I am NOT the former postdoctoral fellow by the same name who left UCSF after findings of research misconduct.
I am an internist with Private Medical, a small-panel primary care practice in San Francisco. I was previously a clinician educator and internist/emergency physician at UCSF and the San Francisco VA (SFVA). My interests include promoting a natural lifestyle and using ultrasound as an extension of the physical exam.
