My experience in medicine is broad and extensive, practicing medicine for nearly 30 years. I have worked with patients in a one-on-one clinical relationship and have enjoyed getting to know patients and understanding their health care goals. I’ve also worked in international health, assisting national systems in North America to be prepared for potential disease epidemics. In addition, I have worked at various system levels within health care organizations throughout my career, from small clinical settings to serving as a physician leader, always with the aim of improving the quality of care provided to patients in an efficient manner.
