Bio

I am a Hospital Based Specialist, caring for adults inpatients . I promote healthy lifestyles, recommend preventive health practices and diagnose acute and chronic medical conditions. I believe my patient is in charge of her/his own health and that I am their health care advisor, advocate and cheerleader!!

I did my internship/residency, chief residency and general medicine fellowship at Kaiser, Santa Clara. Following that, I worked as an assistant residency program director for 5 years and also as a Hospitalist prior to transferring to Kaiser Santa Rosa in 1999.
