When applying for my residency, Kaiser Permanente was my first choice. I have stayed here because I think this system is aligned with patients and offers excellent evidence-based care. I work as an advocate for my patients while fostering a relationship built on mutual respect. I value the importance of continuity of care and focus on the changing needs of my patients together with the ongoing developments within the practice of medicine. Currently, I am the medical director of the Gender Health Program and my practice includes care for adolescents, adults, LGBTQs and transgender youth, as well as HIV management.
