Clinical research physician
I have always had an interest in health education, whether one-on-one with a patient in the clinic or teaching a roomful of medical students and residents. Sharing actionable knowledge to help improve the health and well-being of my patients is one of the most important things I can do as a physician. Digital health information has become an indispensable tool for both individuals and society to become active, engaged members of the healthcare team.
