Family Medicine
About
I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and went to medical school in Prague to be closer to my extended family. It was there that I met Ziya. Family, meaningful connections, and long-term relationships are incredibly important to me, so it’s no surprise that I was drawn to Family Medicine. We completed our residency in the Richmond area, fell in love with the city, and decided to build our family and life here. I consider prevention and continuity the most important pillars of family medicine. During my training, I took a particular interest in ultrasound guided diagnostics and procedures, hospital medicine, rural medicine and advanced wound care. Besides my role at Carytown DPC, I also work at a local hospital as a hospitalist physician. These roles synergize well: I am always up to date on "what is putting people in the hospital" and can use this information to prevent hospitalizations, especially in high‑risk patients. I am also comfortable managing more complex patients in the outpatient setting when possible, instead of sending them to the ER.
