“I think gastroenterology is the best field of medicine. One minute, I can help a patient in the hospital who is bleeding and very sick. Later, I can help prevent someone from getting colon cancer or see a long term patient with a complex disease like IBD or liver disease. I have a passion for my work and hope to provide the best care to all my patients.”
