    Provider's Bio

    Every patient will have ample time to explain her condition and shed light on what matters to her most, as we navigate her treatment options. It is very imperative that the patient understands our partnership in managing her condition and that she identifies us as her support team so that she can focus on her treatment and recovery.

    The most rewarding aspect of my time with the patient is when I get to educate them about their body and how disease affects its balance. It is always my goal to allow my patient to graduate from her care with enough knowledge that she would use to teach and advocate for herself and to other women in her community.

    This way, not only would touch the patient’s life, but also the communities’ at large.

    Outside of work, I do enjoy biking, swimming and camping. I am also a RC Plane Hobbyist and love grilling and cooking Lebanese cuisine.
