Testimonials
Dr. X is a great physician and an inspiration to someone like me who is just starting to build their career. You can tell that Dr. X has a strong grasp of clinical knowledge by the way the doctor approaches a case and plans its management. Dr. X treats patients, continuously learns something from everyone, takes time to teach no matter how late it is in the day, and somehow manages to do all of that with the same enthusiasm and energy throughout the week. I've gained not just medical knowledge but also a fresh perspective on living in the US and building a career.
