I assist patients with complex medical concerns that benefit from a careful, evidence-based approach, including chronic disease management, medication review and optimization, chronic pain conditions, treatment side effects, sleep disturbances, anxiety-related symptoms, and preventive health planning. I also support patients who need clarity on long-term treatments, risk factors, and safe medication use. My focus is on improving outcomes through accurate assessment and personalized care.

I have worked in university hospital settings and primary care, with advanced training in clinical pharmacology and epidemiology, including pharmacovigilance and biostatistics.
