Excellent team player that works in harmony with medical staff and administration in ensuring high quality medical attention consistent with organizational standard operating procedures. I have special interest in obesity management and have come to understand that obesity is a disease far beyond the patient's' control, and such complex disorder requires a specialized program that meets the patient's needs and goals, in order to prevent or reverse other comorbidities, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cancer, etc. As a locum doctor, I have had opportunities to work at various hospitals, both in the U.S. and abroad. I realize the importance of weight management as it relates to most, if not all, diseases. I have been involved in the care of the patients with the disease of obesity on and off since 1995. I recently joined the team at WES taking care of our veterans with various disabilities. It has given me the opportunity to appreciate on a personal level these men and women who have been selfless in their service to our country and to all it's citizens. As the Chief Medical Officer for Physicians Plus Inc, I was directly responsible for hiring of medical staff, coordinating their activities, guiding the daily decision making regarding various operations, medical and non-medical, ensuring compliance with HIPAA and disciplinary actions.
