Why I love to teach

Loading...

I am a Clinical Associate Professor and Director of the Emergency Ultrasound program at Stanford University School of Medicine's Department of Emergency Medicine. My fellowship training in point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) fundamentally changed my clinical practice, and has made me a more confident and efficient physician. Having seen the benefits of using POCUS in my practice, I’m dedicated to teaching it to all healthcare professionals.
