I was born in Manila, Philippines and have had the opportunity to live in many different countries, since my father worked in the oil industry. Eventually, we settled in Houston twenty years ago and have never looked back. My family and I live in the Katy/Richmond area, and we absolutely love it here. I have had the privilege to serve the greater Houston area as a Nurse Practitioner for several years. I speak both English and Tagalog fluently. I decided to go into medicine because I love serving others. Becoming a Nurse Practitioner means that I can directly impact the health of my patients and ensure that they meet their treatment goals. A good day at work means that my patients have left our meetings feeling confident in the care that they received, more educated about their medical plan, and ready to take charge of their health. I want you to know that at Sanitas we care for you. We treat you as our family and our goals for you is to stay healthy and live long fulfilling lives. Our focus is on primary prevention; however, we understand that there are things that happen out of your control and are here to help you. When I take off my coat, I love spending time with my large family, gardening, and caring for my guinea pigs and rabbits.
