I grew up in England where medical education starts right after high school. At 16, I decided to become a doctor, rather than an engineer like my dad. At the time, a family friend told me that medicine would always be changing and never boring. And its very true, my work has always been quite interesting! My patients feel at ease with me. Im easy going. I like chatting with them about their family life and their kids. When a person comes to me with a problem and Im able to find out what it is, fix it and hear, "I feel so much better," thats quite gratifying.
