Practice Philosophy
 

My goal is to provide the best care possible to all my patients.  I treat my patients as though they are my family members.  I will do everything I can to help patients navigate through the complexity of today's health care system.  I always try to explain medical problems in terms that patients can understand.  As a true family physician, I have diverse interests.  Chances are, I can explain things in ways that make good sense to you.

I believe that each patient is a complex individual with his/her own unique biopsychosocial compoments.  What this really means is that I care about how you feel, how you want to be treated, how you live, and how life has affected you. I don't just treat your disease; I treat the complete you. Unlike, most modern days physicians, I do spend a reasonable amount of time with my patients and address all of their concerns.  But of course, if you are in a hurry and just want me to be quick and simple, I can do that too!

I understand that when you need to see your doctor, you don't want to wait 1 to 2 months for an appointment .  My office always have same day appointments available for acute illnesses.  My staff and I always work hard to ensure that your waiting time in the office is minimal.    I do see many walk-in patients, but as I have other duties, please try to call for my availability before you come.

Even though my office is in the San Gabriel Valley, my regular patients come from many different areas including the Greater Los Angeles area, Van Nuys, Long Beach, Compton, Orange County, and some as far as San Bernardino County.
