I have always been fascinated by the sophistication and complexity of the human brain and nervous system. I knew that I wanted to devote my skills and talents to the study of neurology so that I could help improve the lives of patients with neurological disease. What do you enjoy most about working with patients? I love the relationship that I build with my patients, and I receive great satisfaction when I am able to solve a problem or find the right treatment for them. How does your work improve lives? Neurological diseases are generally chronic diseases that can significantly affect the quality of life for those affected. Treating these diseases makes patients feel that they were given their lives again.
