Sophia Qureshi, MD

How/why did you choose your specialty?
I chose Family Medicine because it is the heart and soul of the medical field. It encompasses pieces of all specialties and is the doorway for patients to get specialized care.

What qualities best describe the care you provide for patients?
As we talk about qualities for providing care, I listen very carefully when my patients talk about their health concerns and record their complaints with empathy. I happily embrace the challenge to use my clinical acumen to find solutions and try my best to avoid unnecessary procedures and diagnostic tests. As a family physician, I enjoy my position as a collaborator and love the synergistic relation with other specialists to provide high-quality care."

What is the most important thing you want patients to know about you and your practice?
I want my patients to know I'll combine the latest medical knowledge with great clinical skills and work ethic to find solutions to their medical problems."
