Work History

Endocrinologist

MedStar Shah Medical Group
08.2023 - Current

I work as an Endocrinologist in St. Mary's County. My patients come from underserved communities, and I specialize in treating diabetes, thyroid, pituitary, reproductive health, obesity, osteoporosis, and transgender medicine. I am passionate about bringing diabetes technologies to patients suffering from this condition. During my clinic visits, I focus on lifestyle management for obesity and preventative medicine for everyone who can benefit from it. Additionally, I prioritize diabetes education, nutrition, and the use of continuous glucose monitors. I am currently working on getting certified in Obesity medicine as well.
