About Me
I am a triple board-certified endocrinologist and lifestyle medicine specialist with over 15 years of experience, licensed in Texas and California. My passion is to empower individuals to make lifestyle changes to prevent, manage, and achieve reversal of chronic conditions — specifically diabetes and obesity. In 2024, I piloted a study with ACLM on diabetes remission using a shared medical appointment model, and became co-investigator for the LEADR program. At DFW Endocrinology, we offer diabetes remission, weight loss, and lifestyle coaching in group settings while providing personalized plans. My mission is to create healthy and happy communities.

About Me
Medicine has been my passion since childhood and I deeply enjoy listening to my patients and helping them make the right decisions for their health. I chose Endocrinology because I love the different feedback loops of hormones and the interplay of all these in regulating the entire human body. Having practiced in different states — Illinois, Tennessee, Ohio, and Nebraska — I gained immense experience adapting to different cultures and patient preferences, which helps me understand the patient perspective better when choosing a treatment plan. Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, gardening, and spending time with family.
