Care Philosophy
I believe in God. He gave me the intelligence, motivation, commitment and courage to become a doctor. His blessings make me a wise physician. I know my limits. I believe that all diseases manifest as problems of harmony between the human body, mind and soul. So I approach patients as a whole being rather than set of symptoms only. My treatments seek to help my patient re-establish this harmony of body-mind-soul.
