The education program I attended focused on rural primary care to help people who may not have access to medical treatment. It taught me to think outside the box when resources were scarce, which has been a useful skill throughout my career.
I use an evidence-based medicine approach. Evidence-based medicine integrates clinical experience and patient values with the best available research information. I try to find alternative solutions to prescription medications when possible. I enjoy working within a health care team to help patients find the resources to meet their needs.
