"My love of medicine stems from a long family tradition of doctoring. I am a 4th generation MD and feel honored and privileged to serve my community in this way. It is a special thrill to take care of one's entire family, through births and deaths, with tears of joy and sorrow, learning something new about life every day. I am particularly blessed to have a supportive family to help me pursue my busy career, and to have superb colleagues with whom to work and learn anew each day. I trust the community of Grossmont Hospital, and the providers at Grossmont Family Medical Group, to help me serve my patients in a caring and competent manner 24 hours a day. This is quality care and we are committed to providing it."
