My Specialty and Why I Chose It

I am a hospitalist with the department of Medicine. I chose internal medicine because I am able to treat a variety of complex diseases within adults.

My Credentials

Medical school	University of Gujarat, Ahmedabad, India
Residency	Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY
Board certification	Internal Medicine, American Board of Internal Medicine

My Practice Philosophy

My personal philosophy is to treat each patient as an individual and focus on them. I also value compassion, communication and educating my patients.

My Tenure with Kaiser Permanente

I have been enjoying working for Kaiser Permanente since 2005.

Why I Like Practicing Medicine at Kaiser

I like practicing at Kaiser because it allows me the freedom to focus on my time and energy entirely on my patients rather than the business aspect. I also have accessibility to other colleagues in various different departments if the need arises. In order to take better care of my patients Kaiser has many educational advancement opportunities to keep me updated.

My Professional Interests and Affiliations

I am a member of the American College of Physicians

On a Personal Note…

I was born and raised in India and moved to the United States after medical school for further training. I completed my residency in Internal Medicine in New York in 2005. My wife and I had lived in Sacramento prior to our move to New York and so, decided to move back HOME when I was done with residency. In my spare time I enjoy sports, technology and spending time with my family.
