Summary
- Initially drawn to surgery due to my experiences as a patient, I fell in love with internal medicine while working as a wound care specialist in nursing homes. I am very interested in general internal medicine as well as narrative medicine as a tool for wellness and burnout prevention.
With previous experience as a hospitalist medical director, currently working as a per diem/locums hospitalist.
