- Biography:
I started loving medicine while living in a modest and economically poor country but with a tremendous medical inheritance. The love for people, the genuine desire to see people happy and on their feet, and the hope of becoming my sick mother’s personal doctor made me pursue the oldest profession in the world: medicine.
After graduating from Medical school in Bucharest, we lived for 9 years in a small German village in Transylvania – 15 minutes away from any medical clinic – where I managed to provide care to people of all ages. With very little medical equipment, just a stethoscope and first aid pharmacy, the importance of a good medical history taking and a precise medical exam followed by an affordable treatment became crucial to treating the patient in a timely manner.
A good understanding of the patient as a friend coming to the office to unload his sorrows and hurts replaced the lack of any modern medicine equipment.
My family immigrated to the USA in 2001; I graduated from Family Practice residency at Mid-Michigan Medical Center in 2007 and worked for Scripps Medical Center in Southern California for 9 years and NW Kaiser Permanente Portland, Oregon, for 8 years.
I was grateful to have the opportunity to blend modern medicine with the traditional values of respect, empathy, and compassion for the patient.
I had the opportunity to develop my interests further: minor skin surgery, women’s health, joint injections, nerve block injections, trigger fingers, and gynecology procedures.
Outside of medicine, I like swimming, volleyball, and hiking. We have four children, the youngest of whom is 18 years old.
