Summary
As a sleep medicine physician, the goal is to provide the highest level of evidence-based care to promote the welfare and wellbeing of our patients. I believe in patient-centered care in which the patients take an active role in their healthcare. I believe attaining optimal sleep can improve our patient's daily functioning as well as reduce the risk of critical illnesses including high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
