Brief Intro

Joined Kaiser Permanente Medical Group: 2000 In my practice, I really enjoy taking care of patients in the way I would like to be treated. I try to communicate with patients so they have good comprehension of their illness and treatment plan. I also try to be approachable and accessible so as to provide the best care possible. , I enjoy the challenges of working in the Intensive Care Unit because it allows me to put to use all my knowledge and skills in a critical situation and make a difference. As for practicing at Kaiser, I appreciate the comradery and teamwork that goes into our excellent patient care. As a Pulmonologist, I take appointments by referral only. If you do not yet have a referral, please call our appointment/advice line at (650) 742-2100 to make an appointment with a general practitioner. Once you have a referral, to make an appointment in our sub-specialty department, please call (650) 742-2230. Our goal at Kaiser Permanente is to be your health plan of choice and deliver the quality medical care our members deserve. Thank you again for choosing Kaiser Permanente.
