About the PRACTICE

Your well-being is my main priority.

Recognizing the challenges of modern healthcare, I have chosen to prioritize patients over paperwork and insurance demands. I have transitioned my practice to a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, ensuring more convenient and frequent interactions with my patients for enhanced well-being.

HISTORY

25 years strong!

I am a Board Certified Internist and Pediatrician. I graduated from Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC in 1994 and trained at Albany Medical Center from 1994 to 1998. In 2002, I established a private practice in Worcester, MA. For over two decades, I have devoted my time to providing unhurried, empathetic primary medical care services to patients of all ages. Over the years, I have managed not to let my practice get swallowed up by corporate or big hospital medicine and remain independent. Throughout all the changes in the medical world over these years, my patients have always been my priority. Due to the ever-increasing demands of insurance carriers, it has been getting harder and harder to protect that special bond between doctor and patient. For that reason, in 2023, I left the insurance-model of health care and adopted the direct primary care model.

My guiding principles that shape every aspect of my practice.

Compassion

I care about my patients. I strive to listen to them, show kindness, understand their feelings, and try to make them feel better.

Trust

Building trust is super important. I am open, talk clearly, and do what I say I will do. My patient's health is my first priority. I get to know my patients well and treat them like family. They trust that I have their best interest at heart and don't just follow "guidelines" robotically.
