I am a Board-Certified Internal Medicine Physician and a medical staff at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View,
Ca, where I have been serving our community since 2018, including through the challenges of the pandemic.
My dedication to this community extends beyond hospital care to primary care, where I believe many diseases
can be prevented through lifestyle modifications and early intervention.
At our clinic, we offer a comprehensive range of services, from preventative care to the management of
chronic and complex conditions. One of the areas of my interest is metabolic health, particularly focusing on
the impact of obesity on overall well-being. Having seen firsthand the struggles many of my patients face with
obesity-related complications, my passion for addressing this issue has only grown.
I provide personalized medical weight loss treatments designed to support long-term success, helping you
take control of your health. Whether you need primary care physician or are seeking guidance on weight loss
and metabolic health, I am here to support you every step of the way.

Mediterranean Diet
The Mediterranean diet has numerous health benefits, particularly its ability to support heart health, and improve
metabolic function. This diet emphasizes whole foods, including fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, healthy fats
like olive oil, lean proteins such as fish and legumes, and a moderate intake of dairy. Studies have shown that
following a Mediterranean diet can help reduce the risk of heart disease, and lower cholesterol levels.
Studies show that substituting saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats can significantly lower LDL cholesterol, or
“bad” cholesterol, by up to 22%. Saturated fats, which are typically solid at room temperature, contribute to the
buildup of plaque in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease. By replacing saturated fats with healthier fats
found in foods like olive oil, nuts, and fatty fish in Mediterranean diet, individuals can make a simple yet powerful
change to protect their heart health and improve their cholesterol levels.
