As a nurse practitioner at Sanitas, I strive to provide excellent care for my patients. My focus is not only to cure, but to diagnose curable diseases early. A good day at work is when my patients feel satisfied with the care they've received. Apart from practicing allopathic medicine, I'm also getting certified in functional medicine. I believe in instilling healthy habits in patients so they can have a healthier life. For me, the need to give back to the community is necessary to satisfy my soul, which I fulfill through medicine.
Born and raised in India, I've been in the U.S. for 10 years and Houston is now my home. While in India, I worked as an army nurse for 8 years and traveled often. During one trip, I met my husband and we moved to the United States to start our family.
When I take off my coat, my time is completely dedicated to my family. I have two beautiful daughters and a very supportive husband.
