About Us
“ I was 10 years old when my father had a massive stroke. I later learned that he suffered a stroke due to his lifelong complications of Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension. This experience was my motivation to pursue medicine. I wanted to focus on patient care and education that can have a positive impact on their lives.”
