The most rewarding part of my work in ophthalmology is when patients no longer need my care and can resume their daily activities. It is gratifying to help people better interact with the world around them. I provide care tailored to each patient's needs and communication style. I ensure patients understand their diagnosis so that we can develop the best care plan together. I provide clear explanations and spend time discussing their concerns. I also extend care beyond the patient to their family members. I encourage questions and collaboration, recognizing that families know their home dynamics best. Outside work, I love exploring new places, whether on a trail or in a diner, and discovering hidden gems. I'm always eager for patients to share their favorite spots!
