Initially, I was working as a general practitioner; however, over time I started to have more patients coming in for sports injuries and pain, which was great since I had specialized training in that area. Now, I'd say I see a very wide range of conditions, the bulk of which are for orthopedic injuries, stress and anxiety, and insomnia.
