Summary
- I am a seasoned Board-Certified Internist with experience and expertise in diverse medical areas including geriatrics, HIV, LGBT health, and sexually transmitted diseases. I have a strong foundation in diagnosing and treating a wide array of conditions and take pride in empowering my patients to make informed health decisions.
Throughout my career, I have held leadership positions overseeing clinical aspects of healthcare delivery and strategic planning. This experience has equipped me with a keen understanding of coordinating care and ensuring high-quality service delivery. Education is a passion of mine, and I frequently deliver presentations and lectures.
I am dedicated to continual professional development to stay abreast of the latest medical advancements and best practices. I bring a history of commitment to research as evidenced in my peer-reviewed articles for the Journal of the American Medical Association and the Journal of Transgender Medicine. As a researcher, I have had the honor to serve as the Principal Investigator in five clinical trials and as a Co-Investigator in 28 clinical trials.
