Professional Background

In teaching, it is important to be versatile. There are many challenges when it comes to teaching a variety of personalities, skill levels, and learner types. Being cognizant and adaptable to a learners needs is vital. The field of medicine uniquely provides the best resource of knowledge; the patient. It is my goal to educate residents and students about standard medical practices with emphasis on the medical history and physical exam. Every successful patient encounter occurs with a solid education base. Therefore, I emphasize being familiar with the standard of care and maintaining knowledge of the most up-to-date literature. Most importantly, it is my responsibility to teach these learners how to tailor these standards for each patient to adhere with their individual goals and furthermore expand their capability to provide equitable care.
