Care Philosophy: “Patients are the captains of their ‘Health ship’. A doctor should act as the navigator. My job is to help the patients by giving them all the information they need to make the right decisions about their health. All I need to do is listen carefully to the patient, and understand his/her needs. Simple. I have a special interest in geriatrics, diabetes mellitus, and preventive cardiology.”
