As a Primary Care Physician, I emphasize clear communication and collaboration among the care team. I believe in setting regular check-ins and utilizing technology to keep everyone updated on patient needs, which ensures that we provide seamless care.

Certainly! I have worked extensively with value-based care models, focusing on patient outcomes rather than volume. I look at data analytics to drive improvements and actively engage with patients to ensure their wellness goals are met.

Building trust starts with open communication. I take the time to listen to my patients, show empathy, and ensure they understand their care plans. I believe that patient education is key in fostering trust and encouraging their participation in their care.

In dynamic work settings, prioritization and adaptability are essential. I maintain focus on patient needs while leveraging a proactive approach to solve potential issues, ensuring continuity of care even in unpredictable circumstances.

Technology is invaluable in primary care, especially for managing patient data and facilitating communication. I utilize electronic health records for streamlined care coordination and telehealth platforms to reach patients remotely, enhancing access to healthcare.
