What made you want to become a Physician?
I always knew I wanted to be in healthcare from an early age. I grew up in a small community in Kenya where access to health care was scarce. People only went to hospitals or clinics when there was something seriously wrong. Growing up in this environment motivated me to advocate for preventative medicine and be at the frontlines of preventative care.
