ÀÇÎѵ¼º½ Me
I pursued a career in medicine with a desire to make a difference as a pediatric neurologist. There's an intrinsic reward in working with children and their families during their most vulnerable moments, and I am particularly passionate about neurology due to the brain's fascinating complexity and remarkable potential for growth and healing, especially in young patients. I specialize in treating epilepsy, helping children regain control over seizures and supporting families facing a challenging diagnosis.
During my pediatric residency, I worked in a complex care clinic each week, caring for medically complex children, many with neurological conditions like epilepsy. This experience shaped my career, revealing the impact neurological conditions have on development, education, and family dynamics.
I care for children, from infancy to age 17, with a range of general neurological conditions, specializing in epilepsy. I bring a strong foundation in pediatric neurology combined with subspecialty expertise in epilepsy, including the ability to read and analyze electroencephalograms (EEGs).
I value partnership in treatment and strive for informed, involved, and empowered families. My communication goes beyond just recommendations—I explain the reasoning behind each decision and encourage collaborative decision-making. I craft plans that are realistic, sustainable, and medically sound for each patient.
I find immense joy in working with children and being a witness to their resiliency honesty, and innate ability to bring joy even in tough times. I value creating lasting relationships with families, serving as a dependable source of support during stressful times. Whether navigating new diagnoses or managing chronic conditions, I am proud to provide answers, reassurance, and guidance in their care.
