Board Certified, Adult Medicine, 6 years of experience
I worked in critical care taking care of chronic and acute diseases at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in NYC. I became a Nurse Practitioner in Adult Primary care with a degree from New York University. I worked at NYU Langone Hospital in Manhattan and different Adult Primary Clinics throughout NYC. I believe every person should live their best healthy life and I want to help you achieve that. I can speak 3 languages and my passion is to travel the world and learn more about other cultures.
