Care Philosophy: My care philosophy is based on humanism and health promotion, with an emphasis on holistic care with the patients at the center and treating patients with dignity no matter their background or socioeconomic status.

Through health promotion, patients learn to take ownership of their health through managing chronic conditions and prevention.
