Professional Profile:
“I enjoy working with patients of all ages, from newborns to geriatrics, and of all cultural backgrounds. I come from a diverse background; growing up in England with parents of Pakistani descent, obtaining my medical degree in the West Indies, and completing my training in Southern California.
I strongly encourage an open and honest dialogue with my patients from our very first meeting. I’m known to be very accessible and willing to take the extra step to ensure that my patients receive the best care. I strive to complete a thorough and accurate assessment of each patient and together we’ll discuss our options and make a plan of care.
I find that empowering patients with knowledge is key to a successful outcome. I enjoy helping patients manage their chronic conditions and staying up-to-date with the most beneficial therapeutic options. I also enjoy performing office-based procedures (lumps, bumps, moles, toenails, joint injections, etc.).
I believe in the integration of a healthy mind/body/soul and self-motivation in achieving goals. I hope to start a “Work Out with Your Doctor” program as I build my practice at NorthBay.
I consider it a privilege and an honor to be entrusted with a patient’s care and I take that responsibility very seriously.
