I Grow up in a place where health care professionals are very scarce. When I was around 7 year old my father was diagnosed with TB and I have seen how long he suffered and got cured through this “miraculous” doctor. From that point onward I knew what I want to do with my life. I am very passionate about caring for other people. I believe it is the most rewarding profession here on earth. I believe we reap what we sow; and I want to be part of this great [sowing] profession where I could do a lot of caring [and reaping] for the other people. I graduated as a physician assistant on 13 June of 2012. I really like this quotation about patient care philosophy, “A patient is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery in whose presence the clinician is privileged to dwell” Gabriel Marcel.
