Overview

overview

My professional interests are in inpatient general internal medicine, global health equity, health care delivery in resource-limited settings. I care about accompaniment of patients with frequent or prolonged encounters with the health care system, social medicine education, leveraging patient narratives to enhance healthcare and educate medical students. I also work on developing and improving tech tools for hospitalists and providing coaching to support trainees and faculty.

Altmetrics Details

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
