About

She went on to practice at La Clínica de La Raza, Kaiser Permanente, and John Muir Medical Group before founding Vialta Direct Primary Care in Walnut Creek. Her clinical passions center on perimenopause and menopause care, medical weight management, metabolic health, and preventive medicine for women in midlife.
