Meet your Doctor

What led you to become a doctor or choose your focus of medicine?
To touch people’s lives during a hard phase of their life. I lost my parents to cancer, so I understand the impact of the diagnosis and treatment on the patients and their families. It helps me to see the need of my patients and do my best to help them through this difficult experience.

What’s your proudest moment as a doctor?
When I help my patient to achieve his or her goal.

In your opinion, what’s the most important factor in a doctor-patient relationship?
Clear, constant and honest communication that leads to trust.

What do you find most encouraging about the work you do?
I am so encouraged by all the advances in the field of Hematology-Oncology – the new supporting drugs that help the patients tolerate the chemotherapy with minimal side effects, the new targeted therapy, and the advances in the diagnostic tools.

What are your top priorities with every patient you see?
To get to know the people I care for and meet. To treat the patients, not just the disease.
