Why I chose my field
"I chose Family Medicine because it is truly a unique specialty, from experiencing the joys of delivering a newborn to supporting the family of a dying loved one, and everything in between. No other specialty provides the breadth of care that Family Medicine does. We are fortunate to be trained to support our patients in all aspects of their lives and partner with them to achieve their individualized health goals."
