Physician, Assistant Professor
Primary Care - General Internal Medicine
Department: Internal Medicine
As an internist and primary care physician, I believe in providing my patients with individualized care based on the best scientific evidence available. I make sure to partner with each of my patients in order to help improve his or her health.
I specialize in global health and I’m particularly interested in refugee medicine. I’m passionate about providing the highest quality care to everyone, especially the medically underserved.
My favorite part about working here at Ohio State is the vast amount of resources that are available to help me care for my patients. I also enjoy working in such a vibrant academic setting where there is much collaboration and shared learning among the faculty.
When I’m not working, I like to spend my free time relaxing with my family and enjoying the outdoors.
Please note: Not all physicians schedule patients at each listed location.
I am a primary care physician who provides patients with individualized care based on the best scientific information available. I specialize in global health and have a particular interest in refugee medicine.
My current research interests include comparison of diabetes and diabetes risk factors in Nepali and Caucasian patients. While South Asian descent confers risk of diabetes, this risk is not evenly distributed across South Asian countries and little is understood about diabetes in South Asian ethnic groups other than Asian Indians. I believe that it is important to widen our knowledge and education of health needs in vulnerable populations, such as ethnically-Nepali Bhutanese refugees in the U.S. I hope to continue this research and develop awareness of the effects of migration within health and community studies.
In collaboration with colleagues within General Internal Medicine, I am also a course director for community health education where students collaborate with community organizations performing health promotion projects, engaging both residents and medical students, the next generation of physicians. I seek to use a scholarly approach toward development of curricula in community engaged service-learning, social determinants of health, and global health topics.

At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
