My Approach to Healthcare

I aspire to contribute to a healthcare system that prioritizes the well-being of both patients and healthcare professionals. My focus is on improving postoperative outcomes for patients undergoing complex surgeries, beginning from their initial hospital encounter and continuing throughout their care journey. Supporting the mental health of healthcare workers is central to my approach, as a resilient and fulfilled workforce is essential for high-quality care. I believe that when providers are supported, they are better equipped to serve society.
