"I slept and dreamt that life was nothing more than happiness. I woke and saw that life was nothing more than service and that serving was nothing but happiness." - R. Tagore
Growing up in a family of doctors has given me a great appreciation for a career dedicated to changing peoples’ lives for the better. Likewise, the local and international volunteer experiences throughout my life have presented me with that same sincere sense of fulfillment. Being involved in these missions has given me immense gratitude and passion toward providing my patients with the highest standard of orthopaedic care in our community.
