I'm a physician who believes exercise is the most important prescription. Here's my story: I grew up in a single parent household in Los Angeles, California. Playing and coaching volleyball was my first passion, along with leading a healthy lifestyle doing crossfit, krav maga and cross-country running. I dropped out of college to start medical school in Poland at 18 years old, completing the 6 year program at 24 I transitioned back to the USA beginning in Philadelphia. Without a credit score or savings I began working various jobs in the healthcare industry ranging from scribe to medical assistant, office manager, phlebotomist and pharmacy assistant to save up to apply to residency. During this time I picked up Brazilian Jiu jitsu. I met my wife and moved to California where I went unmatched, decided to triple down and make myself a better applicant I matched the following year. I am now starting my PGY3 year of family medicine with a passion for sports and lifestyle medicine. I'm a purple belt in Jiu jitsu teaching at Carlson Gracie academy. As my journey continues, I find the greatest joy in working with athletes and hobbyists. I'm dedicated to getting people back to doing what they love.
