Bio

I am a general internist practicing primary care at an Fair Haven Community Health Care (FHCHC), an FQHC in New Haven, Connecticut. I do clinical work with a large immigrant and Spanish speaking population, and am site director for the Yale Traditional Internal Medicine residency continuity clinic at FHCHC. I also work as an on-site primary care provider for patients with severe persistent mental illness at BHCare in Connecticut. My prior research interests included healthcare policy with a focus on the access to specialty care for underserved populations and socioeconomic determinants of health. I also have spent some time looking at harms from overuse of medical testing.
