Simple lessonslearned during childhood resonated with how I defined myself and what I wanted toachieve in life, creating an impetus to serve and to heal through the field of medicine, she said. Preemptive diagnosis, detection and screening are the paradigm of my Genetics practice,representing one of the most enjoyable aspects of what I do. While the field of genetics istraditionally grounded in Pediatrics, my training in Internal Medicine serves as a uniquewindow into detecting hereditary conditions in the adult population and continuing thesurveillance of syndromes originally identified in childhood.
