I am a dedicated physician with a passion for blending the art of traditional medicine with the rigor of evidence-based practice. For over 19 years, I’ve worked in the fields of Microbiology, Virology, and Infectious Disease Epidemiology, specializing in human Parasitology and Lyme disease. My journey has been guided by a profound respect for the wisdom of traditional medical practices and a commitment to the scientific advancements that evidence-based medicine offers.
In my work, I believe in the power of integration: respecting the time-tested methods that have supported health for generations while leveraging cutting-edge research to enhance diagnostics and treatments. Whether it’s understanding a complex pathogen or tailoring a treatment plan that honors a patient’s cultural background, I strive to combine these approaches in a way that’s both innovative and deeply human.
For me, medicine is not just about curing diseases but about understanding the whole person—their history, values, and environment. Evidence-based medicine provides the foundation, ensuring that every decision is informed by the latest research, while traditional practices add depth and context, bridging the gap between science and the lived experience of health and healing.
By combining these two perspectives, I aim to offer care that is not only effective and precise but also empathetic and meaningful. My mission is to create a space where patients feel seen, heard, and supported, knowing their diagnosis is rooted in both knowledge and compassion.
